Player directly tells Tottenham Hotspur he wants to leave in January

Tottenham Hotspur defender Eric Dier has made it clear to the club what he wants to do amid interest from Bayern Munich.

That is according to TEAMtalk, which has noted what Dier wants to do regarding his future at Tottenham.

So, what has been reported about Tottenham Hotspur, Eric Dier and Bayern Munich? Let’s take a look.

Eric Dier tells Tottenham Hotspur he wants to join Bayern Munich

Well, according to , Bayern Munich are interested in signing Eric Dier from Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window.

The report has claimed that Dier, who can operate as a defender or as a midfielder, “has made it clear to Tottenham” that he wants to leave the Premier League club and move to Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich where he would get the chance to play with his former Spurs teammate Harry Kane.

Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg has reported on Twitter that Dier has reached a total verbal agreement with reigning Bundesliga champions Bayern.

The reporter has added that Tottenham themselves are willing to offload the £85,000-a-week () 29-year-old player in the January transfer window. Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou does not have him in his plans.

My View: Eric Dier is right to want to leave Tottenham Hotspur

In my view, Eric Dier is right to want to leave Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, especially for Bayern Munich.

Bayern are one of the biggest and most successful clubs in the world and could win the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League this season.

Leaving Tottenham for Bayern would be a step-up for Dier, just as it was for Kane, and I support the 29-year-old’s desire to move to the German giants.

Dier has struggled for playing time at Spurs all season. He has made just one start and only three substitute appearances in the Premier League this campaign.
