In light of talks over a potential move to Premier League side Everton, Southampton has withdrawn midfielder Tyler Dibling from full contact training.
The Toffees have made three offers this summer, including a recent bid of £40 million plus £5 million in add-ons, to the 19-year-old England Under-21 international.
Following their relegation from the top flight last season, Saints have all rejected them. They are getting ready for their Championship opener against Wrexham on Saturday.
After scoring twice in 33 appearances in the previous campaign, Dibling has attracted the attention of a number of Premier League clubs.
In a January FA Cup third-round match against Swansea City, he also scored a double.
Everton have struggled to develop their squad this summer, with manager David Moyes claiming last week that the club are “running out” of time to sign players despite having money to spend.
Thierno Barry, Thierno Barry, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Adam Aznou, and Mark Travers, a reserve goalkeeper, have all been acquired by them.
