Bayern Munich agree a contract with Tottenham for defender Eric Dier.
The Bundesliga club will pay £3.4 million (€4 million) – a figure that reflects the fact that Dier is in the last six months of his contract.
Dier is already in Munich and is ready for a medical.
Eric Dier is expected to complete his transfer to Bayern Munich in the next 24 hours.
The Tottenham defender has arrived in Germany, where he will undergo a medical and then sign a contract with Thomas Tuchel, which is expected to be worth around £2.5 million.
Dier is out of favour at Spurs under the management of Angelo Postecoglou and has been told he could leave later this month.
If all goes to plan, Dier will join former club and international teammate Harry Kane at Bayern.
Dier will be replaced at Spurs by Genoa central defender Radu Dragusin, who is expected to move to London for £25 million.
In the opposite direction is expected to go dropped right-back Djed Spence, who was sent back after a season on loan at Leeds.
The deal for Dragusin was called into question on Tuesday night when Bayern Munich made a late formal bid for the Romanian.
However, the defender decided to join Spurs, prompting Bayern to revive interest in Tottenham’s Dier, who is wide open to a move to Germany this month.
Dier, who has six months left on his contract, will cost around £3 million.
The best solution for both sides – Tottenham and Dier – would have been to part ways this month, and that now looks set to happen.
The “fantastic” Englishman has been spotted in Munich and all that is needed to complete the deal is a medical, which is expected to take place in the coming hours.
Dier will be happy with the move, and so will Tottenham, who will not only get a small fee for him, but will also get him off their payroll.
We are sure that Harry Kane will also be happy, as he is supposed to be the driving force behind this deal.
