Bayern legend Manuel Neuer talks about Tottenham’s Eric Dier amid transfer links
Bayern Munich’s veteran goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer, has hinted at the club’s interest in Tottenham defender Eric Dier. Neuer acknowledged that Dier’s name “definitely sounds good,” indicating that the Bundesliga giants are considering the English defender as a potential addition to their squad.
According to information from Sky journalist Torben Hoffmann (h/t Florian Plettenberg – Twitter), Eric Dier is ready for a move to Bayern Munich, pending the final decision from the German club. The 29-year-old defender is currently not a part of Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou’s plans, paving the way for potential suitors like Bayern Munich to express interest.
Dier’s potential move to Bayern Munich comes amidst a period of uncertainty regarding his role at Tottenham. With Ange Postecoglou looking to shape the squad according to his vision, Dier‘s future at the North London club certainly appears uncertain. Besides, the prospect of joining a prestigious club like Bayern Munich could be an enticing opportunity for the English defender.
The Bayern Munich backline is currently composed of players like Matthijs De Ligt, Dayot Upamecano, Kim-min Jae (currently on AFC Asian Cup duties), and Tarek Buchmann. Adding a seasoned player like Dier to this mix could certainly provide additional experience and depth, offering manager Thomas Tuchel more options in defence.
Eric to Bayern?
While Neuer’s comments suggest that Bayern Munich is exploring the market for defensive reinforcements, the final decision regarding Dier’s potential move remains pending. The English defender, known for his versatility and experience, could surely offer valuable contributions to Bayern Munich’s defensive setup.
Dier, who has been a part of the Tottenham squad for several years, might surely be considering a new chapter in his career with the allure of joining a top European club like Bayern Munich after nine and a half years in North London.
