Bayern Munich, one of the most prestigious clubs not only in the German Bundesliga but also in Europe, has recruited Eric Dier (30).

Bayern Munich announced on the club website on the 12th (Korean time) that it would sign Dier on loan until June 30. It includes a one-year extension option that allows a full transfer if you are satisfied with your performance until the end of this season. Dier will wear the number 15 shirt during his loan spell.

Dier, wearing a Bayern Munich shirt, said: "This is a move that has come true for me. I have wanted to play for a club like Bayern Munich since I was young. It is the biggest club in the world and has a great history." "I want to help the team through this. I want to meet my new colleagues and the fans as soon as possible at the Allianz Arena, which I think is the most beautiful stadium in the world," he said.

Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund, who handled Dier's signing, said, "We are delighted to have been able to sign Dier. He is a player who has always been in our plans in this transfer window. He will play a valuable role in our defense going forward." “Dier’s individual skills and international experience will be of great help to our team both on and off the pitch.”

Dier left Tottenham after 10 years. Born in 1994, Dyer, originally from England, moved to Portugal with his family when he was 10 years old. Dier, who started his football there, progressed through the ranks through the youth teams of Portuguese giants Sporting CP. His professional debut was also at Sporting. Dier, who became a soccer player on the Portuguese stage in 2012, used his performance as a stepping stone to move to England, his hometown.
Dier, who left Sporting for a transfer fee of 4 million pounds (about 6.6 billion won) in 2014 and joined Tottenham, was evaluated as having good talent at a young age. He performed well in the early stages of his transfer. He was given a middle ground between defender and midfielder. Starting with coach Mauricio Pochettino, he gradually expanded his position to coaches Jose Mourinho, Nuno Espirito Santo, and Antonio Conte.

During this period, Tottenham mainly used the three-back tactic. Dyer took on the role of coordinating the defense in the last room based on his tall height and physique. However, compared to his physique, Dyer left something to be desired in terms of his judgment, agility, and speed. As the season progressed, his participation in games was remarkable, but his weaknesses became more noticeable. In particular, he was the steadfast starting center back under coach Conte last season, boasting a strong position, but defensive instability was a problem.

Tottenham gave up 63 goals last season alone, ranking 6th in the Premier League for the most goals conceded. In general, there was Dyer's erroneous play in every goal-scoring scene. Amid the atmosphere that Dier needed to be replaced, coach Angers Postecoglou took the reins. In preseason, Coach Postekoglou also gave Dier a chance. However, it was below expectations. In particular, the final game of the pre-season, against Barcelona, ​​was fatal. At that time, Tottenham lost 2-4 despite showing a solid performance against Barcelona. Dyer's poor defense was fatal. Dyer was criticized for being involved in all four goals conceded.
