Tottenham defender Eric Dier is set to join Bayern Munich on a permanent transfer.

The 30-year-old moved to the German giants on loan in January, having made just one start under manager Ange Postecolgou this season and with his contract set to expire in the summer.

Bayern paid a £3.4million fee to take Dier for the remainder of the campaign and the player has since triggered a pre-agreed clause in the deal having made seven appearances.

Dier will now remain in Munich until at least June 30, 2025. He told the club’s official website: "I'm happy in Munich. Now my future is sorted and I can focus on playing well for the club and trying to help the club to win games, win competitions, even though it's been a difficult period for us."

The news officially brings to an end Dier's time at Tottenham, where he made 365 appearances during a nine-and-a-half-year spell.

Max Eberl, FC Bayern board member for sport, said: "He's a valuable support in our defence with all his character."
