Bayern will not end this winter market without signing a centre-back or two. Eric Dier, one of the desired has already been done, in the absence of medical evidence. Tottenham had given the green light to the operation all along and the Englishman, after speaking with Tuchel, also accepted the challenge. The cost of the transfer is about four million because the footballer’s contract ended in June.
Although the number one target is Araujo, his signing in this winter market is almost impossible. That’s why Dier is a good option. The English central defender is much liked by Tuchel for his aerial power and because he fits very well in the 6 position. The Bavarians had to strengthen the demarcation in the central defense no matter what due to the few players they have in that position. With only three center-backs from the first team (De Ligt, Upamecano and Kim Min-Jae), the situation has become even. A situation exacerbated by the misunderstanding at the Asian Cup where Min-Jae was called up.
Tuchel’s happiness
The German coach confirmed that he has requested his signing and that he is already in Munich. ”I like him. “He is a central specialist.”
“We signed him for the centre-back position, he can play as a right or left centre-back, as well as 3 backs. He also played as number 6 in the Premier League a few years ago. “Eric Dier is here in the city and we are trying to close everything “to have him as another option in the center. We will wait until everything is done.”
Bayern will play their first official match of 2024 this Friday, at the Allianz Arena against Hoffenheim. They are currently second, with 38 points, 4 behind Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen. Of course, there is a pending battle to be played.
