&#8216;weighs up reuniting Harry Kane with a forgotten former team-mate&#8217;<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>An Out-of-favour Spurs star has emerged as a target for Bayern Munich<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>The Tottenham defender is yet to make a single appearance this season<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Listen to the latest episode of Mail Sport&#8217;s podcast &#8216;It&#8217;s All Kicking Off!&#8217;\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bayern Munich\u00a0look set to raid Tottenham&#8217;s ranks for a second time in less than a year as they continue to sound out interest in a potential move for one of the club&#8217;s defenders.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou\u00a0has formed a new defensive partnership consisting of Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, with the former regular falling down the pecking order at the club and struggling for minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Harry Kane, made the same switch in the summer after agreeing a \u00a3100m move to Bayern where he has since thrived, scoring nine Bundesliga\u00a0goals and is second in the league&#8217;s goalscoring charts.<\/p>\n<p>Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel has identified a need to recruit more defensive reinforcements in January as the German giants target domestic and European success.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Eric Dier was given the opportunity to leave London in the summer but decided against departing in favour of fighting for his place at the Premier League side, but an exit could now be sanctioned in January, according to BILD.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

Chelsea\u00a0defender Trevoh Chalobah top of his wishlist, however there are concerns amongst Bayern&#8217;s board members over the 24-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>The unlikeliness of Chalobah arriving at the Allianz any time soon means Dier could be brought in as second choice, with the club keeping tabs on the 29-year-old&#8217;s availability.<\/p>\n<p>Dier hasn&#8217;t made a single competitive appearance for Tottenham this season and has featured in just three Premier League squads but was kept on the bench in those games against Sheffield United, Arsenal and Luton.<\/p>\n<p><img

but the Bayern board have concerns over the Blues star<\/p>\n<p>Kane&#8217;s immediate success in Germany could tempt Dier to follow him to the German top-flight, however, he it is likely he would still have to settle for a support role within Tuchel&#8217;s squad.<\/p>\n<p>Kim Min-jae and\u00a0Matthijs de Ligt are Bayern&#8217;s main centre-back partnership, but the lack of experienced replacements at the club could make for a crisis if injuries become a problem.<\/p>\n<p>Dier&#8217;s contract at Tottenham expires in June next year meaning Bayern could sign a pre-contractual agreement with him in January with a bid to securing his services on a free transfer.<\/p>\n<p>However, England&#8217;s qualification in next year&#8217;s European Championship could force Dier into seeking a new team sooner rather than later as he attempts to get back into Gareth Southgate&#8217;s Three Lions squad.<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All
