Dier extends stay at Bayern
Eric Dier will remain at Bayern Munich for another season after a pre-agreed clause was met, the Bundesliga giant has announced.
The 30-year-old joined Bayern on loan from Tottenham Hotspur in January and has made seven appearances.
With Dier’s Spurs contract set to expire on 30 June, an option to make his transfer permanent if he played a certain number of games was included in the deal.
Dier’s stay at Bayern will now run until at least 30 June, 2025, and he said: “I’m happy in Munich. Now my future is sorted and I can focus on playing well for the club and trying to help the club to win games, win competitions, even though it’s been a difficult period for us.”
Dier had made only four appearances for Spurs this season, three of them off the bench, before following former club team-mate Harry Kane to Germany.
The news officially brings to an end Dier’s time at Tottenham, where he made 365 appearances during a nine-and-a-half-year spell.
Max Eberl, FC Bayern board member for sport, said: “He’s a valuable support in our defence with all his character.”
