Just in: BBC journalist says Everton 'advancing' in talks to sign 'special' star

Everton are advancing in talks to sign Southampton winger Tyler Dibling, according to BBC journalist Sami Mokbel.

Dibling has risen to fame over the last few years after an impressive stint with now-relegated Southampton in the Premier League. The young talent showed glimpses of being a phenomenal talent, despite playing in a side who will go down as one of the worst in history in England's top flight.

Southampton managed to accumulate just 12 points during the campaign, narrowly beating Derby County's record. Dibling is far from the finished product, but at the age of 18, he showed plenty of ability that has attracted the interest of a host of clubs around Europe.
