Eric Dier has no place at Tottenham ever since the arrival of new manager Ange Postecoglou but Jose Mourinho could offer him a way out as Roma are considering a January move.
The Englishman has been a staple in the Spurs defence ever since he moved to the club from Sporting CP in 2014 but has yet to play a game this season under new manager Ange Postecoglou.
The 29-year-old’s performances dipped last season and the Australian coach is happy with Cristian Romero and Mickey van de Ven as his centre-back pairing for the season.
According to Calciomercato, Roma are considering a move for Dier in January and they will likely get them if they submit an official bid to Tottenham.

Dier worked under Mourinho during their time at Tottenham so the Portuguese coach knows exactly what he is getting if he brings the defender to Rome.
If the centre-back leaves Tottenham during the winter transfer window, it would see him end his long spell in North London. Although the defender’s services are no longer required at Spurs, Dier has gone on to play 360 times for the club, scoring 13 goals and assisting a further 12.
The 29-year-old is in need of a new chapter in his career and Roma could be the place to turn that page.
