West Ham United have reportedly been among the clubs to enquire about the potential transfer of Southampton wonderkid Tyler Dibling.
Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg has posted on X about the Dibling situation, saying there have been multiple enquiries for the 19-year-old midfielder.
See below as West Ham have been mentioned as one of the clubs interested in Dibling, suggesting they may have already had some initial contacts to enquire about the player, who could cost as much as €65m…

It seems likely that Southampton are going to struggle to keep hold of Dibling after their relegation from the Premier League to the Championship last season.
And it could be superb business by West Ham if they manage to snap up the teenager, who looks like he has a very bright future in the game.
Can West Ham seal the signing of Tyler Dibling?
Dibling seems like he’ll have his pick of clubs if he moves this summer, so could he choose West Ham over the likes of Manchester United, Tottenham and Nottingham Forest?
West Ham should be able to guarantee Dibling regular playing time, but they’re also not looking at their best right now.
Last season was a really poor one for the Hammers, but that’s also true of Man United and Spurs.
In many ways, Forest might be the most tempting option on that list of names, but it will be interesting to see how this saga develops in the weeks ahead.
