Antonio Conte has piled praise on Eric Dier and believes the English defender can go on to become of the best centre backs in world football.
Dier has been one of Tottenham's best players so far this season and has played every minute in the Premier League since the arrival of Conte.
While Conte acknowledged that the 27-year-old is not the finished article he believes Dier has huge potential to be among the best in the business.
'Eric Dier can become one of the best players in the world in that position,' Conte told reporters ahead of Wednesday's Carabao Cup quarter-final with West Ham.
