Tottenham Hotspur central defender Eric Dier has found himself out of favour since the arrival of Ange Postecoglou earlier this summer and could be set for a reunion with Jose Mourinho.
The print edition of Italian news outlet Tuttosport (14/10/23) as relayed by Corriere Giallo Rosso have claimed that Dier is Mourinho’s ‘favourite name’ to arrive in the January transfer window as he seeks improvements to his defence.
Roma have experienced a difficult start to the Serie A campaign having found themselves down in eighth place in the table heading into the international break with just three wins from their opening eight fixtures.

Eric Dier is wanted by AS Roma
Dier has not played a minute of football for Tottenham this season with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven forming the first-choice central defensive partnership, while Davinson Sanchez was even preferred ahead of the England international for the Carabao Cup defeat at Fulham and was sold to Galatasaray just a matter of days later.
SpursWeb Opinion
With Dier’s contract set to expire in the summer, he now faces a decision of whether to leave in January or potentially agree a lucrative pre-contract agreement with an overseas club and depart as a free agent in the summer.
Regardless of Dier’s outcome, there is no doubt that Spurs need to bring in another central defender this winter considering we are considerably exposed if Cristian Romero suffers an injury.
