The Tottenham defender was a regular in the England setup following his first cap back in 2015.

However, Dier had lost his place in the squad in 2021, but now he is back in the fold.

“With Eric Dier, he has been playing well for a period of time,” Southgate explained when discussing his squad selection ().

“We think it is a really close call across our centre-backs and he has deserved to be picked back in the group.

“We know what a good character he is. He fits in with the culture and has great international experience and leadership qualities.”
