The midfielder has had his problems with injuries this season, but it seems there are other things going in his mind too.
Dier has a right to share his views
The former Sporting midfielder should be allowed to voice his opinions on big issues, such as Brexit, and he cannot be seen as a robot who only performs on the pitch.
The 25-year-old has come out in support of a “People’s Vote” on the issue. Dier isn’t the only footballer sharing his views on Brexit with former England striker and Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker also calling for another Brexit vote.
Politics is always a touchy subject and the fans were split over their reactions to Dier’s tweet. There were many that supporter the Englishman’s call while others wanted him to to concentrate on playing football.
Some fans were happy with the Englishman too, and here are some of the reactions over the Brexit tweet.
By people who spend most of their time in front of the telly telling sports people what they should have done better

If the UK is going to trust anyone, then I would strongly advocate that we trust the man who buried the winning penalty in the world cup against Colombia. #PeoplesVote
