Over the last week, various publications have revealed that Tottenham are trying to offload the 29-year-old before Friday night’s transfer deadline (90 min).
A couple of days ago, it was reported that Dier had emerged as a late target for German giants, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund (Kaveh Solhekol – Football Daily) while Fulham have also been credited with an interest in the England international (talkSPORT).

If Football Insider’s latest update is to be believed, Vincent Kompany is keen to strengthen Burnley’s backline before the transfer window shuts and has identified Dier as a target.
The outlet adds that the Clarets submitted a loan offer for the 29-year-old, which has been turned down by Spurs.
