Newcastle are scared that Tottenham could sign their £50m target before the window shuts
Tottenham Hotspur could inflict some pain on Newcastle United in the final days of the winter transfer window.
The two Premier League clubs have had contrasting seasons.
Newcastle turned things around after a poor start and are currently level on points with third-place Manchester City, while Tottenham are 15th after losing more games than they’ve won.
Spurs are in desperate need of reinforcements in this window, and they could make a move to sign one of Newcastle’s key targets.
Newcastle fear that Tottenham will sign Tyler Dibling ahead of them
Tyler Dibling has been one of the big surprises in the Premier League this season.
The teenager has played 24 times for Southampton this season and has impressed everyone. He has only directly contributed to six goals, but the way he has performed has caught several eyes.
TBR confirmed that Tottenham are working on signing Dibling this month on an initial loan deal with an obligation to make that move permanent in the summer.
Newcastle are also interested in Dibling, and have claimed that the Magpies are seriously worried about missing out on him.
The report claims that ‘Eddie Howe and recruitment staff at St James’ Park are eager to beat Premier League rivals Tottenham to his signature in the coming months’.
But, Newcastle don’t have the money to sign him in this window, and there are ‘fears’ in their camp that Tottenham can steal him away before the deadline on February 3rd.
TBR understands that Dibling has a £50 million price tag.
What Eddie Howe privately thinks about Tyler Dibling
Dibling has impressed everybody who has watched him this season, including Howe.
The Magpies have said their goodbyes to Miguel Almiron, who is set to join MLS side Atlanta United, and they could do with a new right winger.
The report claims that Howe ‘is confident that he is capable of getting the best out of’ Dibling if he chooses to wait until the summer and join Newcastle.
However, Ange Postecoglou probably believes the same and after helping the likes of Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall deliver in difficult circumstances, he will back himself to make Dibling a star.
It remains to be seen what will happen in the coming days, but Southampton are in a strong position in negotiations as Dibling’s contract does not expire until the summer of 2027.
