‘I’m Smiling’: Everton’s Next Gareth Bale Has David Moyes Excited

Everton have started their season undefeated, heading into the international break in seventh place following a recent victory against Ipswich Town. Despite concerns over squad depth and attacking output, manager David Moyes has guided the team to a strong start. The club missed out on signing forward Folarin Balogun late in the transfer window, but they possess a highly-rated young talent in Tyler Dibling.

Everton signed Dibling from Southampton for £42 million in the summer of 2025. The 19-year-old forward, who has been compared to Gareth Bale and Theo Walcott, spent most of last season on the bench. However, after settling at the club, the winger is expected to play a more prominent role under Moyes.
