England defender and midfielder Eric Dier is reportedly on the verge of a sensational switch to Bayern Munich, marking a significant departure from Tottenham Hotspur. The 29-year-old, who has seen a diminishing role under manager Ange Postecoglou, is said to have reached an agreement in principle with the Bundesliga giants. Dier’s contract with Spurs expires at the end of the season, allowing him to explore options freely.

Bayern’s manager, Thomas Tuchel, has identified Dier as a target to reinforce his defense, with talks in progress. The German club believes they have the green light to proceed with the move for the versatile Englishman. While it remains uncertain if Spurs will be willing to part ways with Dier, Postecoglou has previously hinted at the player’s future lying away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

If the move materializes, Dier will reunite with former club teammate Harry Kane at Bayern. Kane made a high-profile switch from North London to Munich last August, proving prolific with 25 goals in 22 appearances for Tuchel’s squad, setting Bundesliga records in the process.
