Tottenham may be bracing themselves to lose a second player to Bayern Munich in a matter of weeks after Ange Postecoglou allowed Harry Kane to head to the Bundesliga. Reports suggest the Bavarian giants are planning a move to reunite Kane with his close friend Eric Dier as Thomas Tuchel plots another raid on the Premier League club, with Borussia Dortmund also keen on the defender.<\/p>\n
Dier hasn’t played in any of Spurs’ three Premier League games this season, with Postecoglou preferring the new partnership of Cristian Romero and \u00a343million signing Micky van de Ven.<\/p>\n
The England international has been offered the chance to leave the club this summer after falling down the pecking order under the Australian.<\/p>\n
And the 29-year-old could decide to head for a new challenge in Germany, with Bayern and Dortmund both ready to move for the centre-back, according to\u00a0Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg.<\/p>\n

We left a few out,\u201d Postecoglou said.<\/p>\n \u201cWe left some players on the bench that are very good players. We need a strong squad, it\u2019s not about 11 players.<\/p>\n \u201cEric is in the same boat as all the other boys.
