Tottenham's Eric Dier to undergo medical at Bayern Munich ahead of transfer
Eric Dier
Tottenham centre-back Eric Dier is set for a medical at Bayern Munich ahead of his transfer to the Bundesliga giants, Planet Sport understands.
Spurs have been willing to listen to offers for Dier since the summer and the defender has started only once under boss Ange Postecoglou this season.
Dier, who only had six months left on his current deal, will now leave England and embark on a new challenge alongside former team-mate Harry Kane at Munich.
Postecoglou made clear at the beginning of the campaign that Dier could leave Tottenham, but he remained following the summer transfer window and eventually made his first appearance in the 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in November.
He was handed a start in Spurs' next fixture at Wolves, but has only made two substitute outings since and was absent from Friday's 1-0 win over Burnley in the FA Cup.
Postecoglou insisted it was down to a minor injury, but Bayern had already registered an interest in Dier by that point and they have now reached an agreement with Tottenham over his signing.
Dier has now arrived in Munich for a medical and will leave Spurs just short of a decade's service in N17.
It continues a busy week for Tottenham with Timo Werner joining on loan on Tuesday and Genoa centre-back Radu Dragusin expected to complete a move to the club on Thursday with Djed Spence heading in the other direction.
