As has been previously reported, José Mourinho’s AS Roma have been looking for some defensive reinforcements, and Tottenham’s Eric Dier is on their list.
We have covered a few articles on that already, but Romagiallorossa have an exclusive on the upcoming transfer window for the Serie A side, where they provide more details.
The first name mentioned in the list of potential targets is that of the Tottenham centre-back, who has been barely used by Ange Postecoglou this season.
That was despite his contract expiring at the end of this season, but with just a couple of months left before he can negotiate a free transfer elsewhere, the belief is a ‘maximum of €4-5m’ will be enough to convince the London side.
That would allow Tottenham to make a ‘decent capital gain’, and would allow the player to ‘return to work with Mourinho as a player ‘specifically requested’ by the Portuguese manager.
Dier has only made two appearances this season for Spurs, both coming after the dramatic events of the 4-1 loss to Chelsea in which Cristian Romero was sent off and Micky van de Ven was injured.
