Report: Barcelona keeping close eye on Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier

According to reports from TEAMtalk, reigning La Liga champions Barcelona are planning to keep a close eye on Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier’s form for the rest of the season.

Dier impressed during England’s recent Nations League win over Spain during the international break. It was a brilliant performance from the midfielder, who joined Spurs in 2014.

During the game Dier produced a strong challenge against Sergio Ramos. Former Premier League manager Sam Allardyce suggested on TalkSPORT that Dier is as good as Sergio Busquets. His comment drew a lot of ridicule, but it seems Barcelona have taken a keen note of his performance.
