Chelsea keeping close eye on Tottenham star, midfielder may consider his options next summer

Premier League giants, Chelsea and German champions, Bayern Munich are keeping a close eye on Eric Dier’s situation at Tottenham Hotspur.

Dier started Tottenham’s first five matches in the Premier League in central midfield before suffering a muscle injury in September. He returned to the squad in mid October, but since then has failed to cement a regular spot in the starting XI.

He lost his place in the midfield to Mousa Dembélé and in recent weeks has been used as a centre back by Mauricio Pochettino, the Spurs manager, to cover for the injured Toby Alderweireld.
