According to a report from Bayern Insider podcast (as relayed by Fussball Transfers), Bayern Munich could make a move to sign Eric Dier from Tottenham in January.
Dier has not played a single minute so far this season and with the centre-back’s contract running out next summer, there have been suggestions over the last month that Tottenham will try to offload the 29-year-old in January (Football Insider).
It has emerged over the last couple of weeks that Sporting Lisbon are plotting a move to re-sign the England international (The Times) while Jose Mourinho wants to reunite with the player at AS Roma (CalcioMercato).

Bayern Munich move now a possibility for Eric Dier
Football Transfers have now asserted that Bayern are looking to bolster their options in central defence, with Dier being one of the names on their wishlist.
It is explained that while Thomas Tuchel wants to sign Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah, some at the Bundesliga club are not fans of the 24-year-old and are exploring other options.
One of those is said to be Dier, with the report adding that a move for the Tottenham man could come into greater focus for the German side over the coming weeks.

Dier would want to join a club where he can get regular game time. That is not going to happen at Bayer, with Kim Min-Jae, Dayot Upamecano and Matthijs de Ligt already at the club. So, I would be surprised if the Tottenham man green-lights the move to the Allianz Arena.
