Tottenham Hotspur want Southampton star Tyler Dibling, Como forward Nico Paz also on their radar

Tottenham Hotspur have now approached Southampton for winger Tyler Dibling, according to the Independent journalist Miguel Delaney.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium club are moving on after missing out on Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze to Arsenal.

They want to pip Everton to Dibling. The Saints have stuck with their £45 million plus valuation, and while Everton are unwilling to meet their demands, Spurs could be.

The Toffees have had three separate bids knocked back in recent weeks, and it is unclear if they plan to return with a bid.

Tottenham are in dire need of attacking reinforcements and could be willing to pay whatever Southampton want for their 19-year-old star.

The Everton target is not the only forward on their radar following the Eze blow.

Signing RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons has also been discussed, while they have considered reviving interest in Atletico Madrid star Conor Gallagher.

However, Spurs feel his wages are too high, and Como ace Nico Paz could be a viable alternative.

Movement in an attempt to sign the Argentina international is expected on Thursday after his impressive campaign since moving to Italy from Real Madrid.

The 20-year-old ended last term with six goals and nine assists in 35 Serie A games, and signing him could be great for Tottenham.

They also have a long-standing interest in Morgan Rogers, but Aston Villa want more than £80m for him.

Spurs want two attacking signings after bringing in Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United, and they will be desperate to get quality additions following recent setbacks.

Morgan Gibbs-White opted to stay at Nottingham Forest despite having a medical booked, while Eze is joining Arsenal.
