OFFICIAL: Spurs' Eric Dier joins Bayern Munich on loan

Eric Dier will spend the second half of the season away from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The English centre-back has joined Bayern Munich on loan until the end of the current season, with an option to make the move permanent.

In this way, the Bundesliga champions' new No.15 will try his luck away from England after nine and a half seasons playing for Tottenham, something he has classed as a dream come true for him.

"This move is a dream come true for me, because as a child you want to play for a club like Bayern one day. Bayern is one of the biggest clubs in the world and has an incredible history. I want to help the team with my versatility in defence," said the defender. 

Bayern's sporting director Christophe Freund praised the arrival of the Spurs centre-back. "We’re pleased we’ve been able to sign Eric Dier. He’s long been in our thinking for this transfer window. Eric will be a valuable part of our defence. His sporting abilities and international experience will help the team both on the pitch and in the changing room."
