Tottenham outcast Eric Dier ‘holds talks with chairman Daniel Levy’ after being frozen out by Ange Postecoglou in Spurs’ first FIVE matches of the season

Eric Dier has spoken to Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy about his future in North London after he reportedly failed to break into Ange Postecoglou’s match squad.

The England international has not been included in the starting eleven or on the bench in Spurs’ first five games in either the Premier League or the Carabao Cup since the start of the season in August.

With just one year left under his current contract, the 29-year-old’s season remains uncertain. Despite failing to influence his new manager, Tottenham have reportedly turned down offers for a departure from the side.

Mail Sport reported at the end of August that the club would have turned down a loan offer from Burnley for the defender.

But according to Telegraph SportsDier would like to get more clarity about his situation and had a candid conversation with Levy last week.

The director is said to have had a frank conversation with Dier and his teammate Hugo Loris

Dier has been with Tottenham for over nine years and has been a fixture under a range of different managers. There has been no altercation or personality conflict between the player and Postecoglou that could have led to his omission.

However, after two high-profile departures, Dier could be even more in demand at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The club set the steps for both Davinson Sanchez and Tanguy Ndombele to join Galatasaray in the Turkish Super Lig, with Ndombele leaving on loan and the defender leaving permanently – which should have a knock-on effect on Dier’s fortunes as Postecoglou depths looking in the back line of his team. .

Former captain Hugo Loris also spoke to Levy after receiving similar treatment, and both players were able to book another deadline day transfer to Saudi Arabia before the conclusion of the Saudi Pro League period on Thursday night.

Ange Postecoglou has quickly made his mark on his Spurs squad, overseeing an unbeaten Premier League start

The goalkeeper previously turned down a move to Nice, and like Dier, his contract has only one year left.

Postecoglou’s shake-up may ruffle the feathers in north London, but it’s paying off after an unbeaten Premier League start.

The Lilywhites have won against Bournemouth, Burnley and Manchester United since their opening day draw against Brenford to take them second in the table before the international break.

But their Carabao Cup campaign was ended prematurely by Fulham in their second round match, which saw the Cottagers beat Spurs at home on penalties.
