Journalist States Eric Dier ‘Unlikely to Leave’ Tottenham Hotspur

Despite Dier being offered to Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth in this transfer window, the defender is set to remain in North London.

Eccleshare also reported that no deal has appealed to Dier, who wants to see out the remainder of his Lillywhites contract, which expires next summer, whilst the North London club want to sell the player on a permanent deal, leaving the club and player in conflict over what happens next.

Dier is behind Davinson Sanchez in the Tottenham pecking order, a player who has also been much maligned by some Spurs fans. Postecoglou has already brought in Micky Van der Ven at centre-back and has Cristian Romero with him as his preferred defensive partnership.

Whilst it is unlikely that Dier will change his mind about taking a loan deal away from Tottenham, Eccleshare did dangle the carrot that with this being transfer deadline day, anything can happen and a late deal, could yet come.
