‘David Moyes to agree Tyler Dibling loan exit in January’ as Championship club named
Tyler Dibling could leave Everton and join a Championship side on loan in January.
Dibling signed for Everton from Southampton in the summer, but has struggled for regular minutes under David Moyes this campaign.
The Englishman was left on the bench from the start as Everton lost 1-0 to Arsenal, even with Iliman Ndiaye missing and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall injured.
Dibling is yet to prove why Everton spent £40million on him, as other options have been preferred in the starting XI almost every week at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
The January transfer window is just days away, and that could pose an opportunity for Dibling to temporarily leave Merseyside for a second-tier switch.
Tyler Dibling could join Preston on loan in January
Dibling has already been linked to a Southampton return ahead of the winter window after his big-money summer departure.
At 19, the winger is in desperate need of regular minutes and looks unlikely to get that across the second half of the season in L4.
The Blues could allow the youngster to depart on loan, with a switch to Moyes’ former club Preston potentially on the cards.
Former scout Bryan King has suggested that the Scot could use his prior relationship with North End and send Dibling to the side sitting fifth in the Championship.
Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, King said: “I think it might be to give him a bit of confidence by loaning him to a Championship club.
“He doesn’t seem to be getting too many minutes with Everton. Preston could be a good option for him.
“You’ve got David Moyes, who started his managerial career there, and he lives in Preston, so I don’t think it would be a problem.
“It’s an option that could benefit both Preston and Everton until the summer.“
Dibling could benefit from Everton loan exit
The teen has only started one Premier League game this season, but he really needs to feature more regularly to further his development.
Dibling caught the eye across his 38 appearances at Southampton last season, so dropping into the Championship could allow him to thrive.
Preston are flying high right now, and with Harrison Armstrong there, on top of the link to David Moyes, it could be an ideal place for the Englishman to improve this season.
It would be a surprise, but rule nothing out yet.
