There are already concerns at Bayern Munich over former Tottenham Hotspur defender Eric Dier.

Reports in Germany have claimed that Eric Dier’s future at the Bayern is already in doubt.

Dier made the move to Bavaria on loan in the January transfer window and with his contract at Tottenham set to expire this summer, his time at the club appears to be over.

The 30-year-old enjoyed a promising start to life in Munich as he boasted a 100 per cent record after three games played. 

But after thee defeats on the bounce for Bayern, questions are now being asked of their current playing squad, with Thomas Tuchel also set to leave the club this summer.

And German outlet Sport Bild claim Dier’s days at the club could ne numbered. 

Bayern already have concerns over Dier

The outlet notes that should Dier continue to play for Bayern, they will be forced to buy the former Spurs man for around £2.5 million.

Yet, some at Bayern are doubting the ‘class’ of the Englishman already.

Indeed, people at the club feel Dier is not only lacking match sharpness, but he also lacks ‘speed’.

As a result, his future at the German club is ‘questionable’.

It was a surprise to see Dier secure a switch to one of Europe’s biggest clubs last month.

The defender barely featured under Ange Postecoglou before being offloaded in the January window. 

His performances has dipped off massively over the past couple of years and eyebrows were raised when Tuchel snapped him up for Bayern.

We’d be surprised to see the Bundesliga champions make his move permanent come the summer, especially with Tuchel heading out the door.

Should that be the case, Dier will be a free agent this summer and he’s likely to attract plenty of interest.
