Bayern Munich defender Eric Dier will leave the club at the end of the season after rejecting the chance to stay at the Allianz Arena.

The 31-year-old joined the Bundesliga club from Tottenham in January 2024, initially on a six-month loan deal.

The Germans signed the England centre-back permanently that summer, with Dier going on to make 45 appearances for the six-time Champions League winners.

“We had discussions with Eric about a new contract,” sporting director Christoph Freund said.

“He told us that he doesn’t want to extend and will leave us.

“He’s a great guy. We had a great time together. Hopefully he crowns his time with us with his first title.”
