Chelsea, Bayern Munich to pounce for frustrated Spurs utility Dier

Eric Dier's battle at Tottenham for minutes has caught the eye of major rivals.

The Times says Dier's involvement at Tottenham is being monitored by several clubs including Bayern Munich and Chelsea.

The England midfielder is reportedly unhappy at his restricted involvement under Mauricio Pochettino this season, and could look for more regular game time elsewhere.

Dier has lost his first-choice status to Vincent Wanyama, who arrived from Southampton last summer.

Antonio Conte is keen to bolster his midfield at Stamford Bridge with versatile players who can also play in his back three.

And German giants Bayern - who had an approach for Dier rejected last summer - could move for the midfielder again.
