Harry Kane sends message to Eric Dier after he makes Bayern Munich debut following Tottenham exit | OneFootball

Harry Kane has congratulated Eric Dier after the former Tottenham Hotspur defender made his debut for Bayern Munich last night.

Eric Dier secured a surprise switch to Munich earlier this month after Tottenham beat the Bundesliga champions to the signing of Radu Dragusin.

It led to Bayern targeting a surprise move for the defender, who was previously out of favour under Ange Postecoglou.

The 30-year-old defender got 45 minutes under his belt last night as Bayern picked up a 1-0 win over Union Berlin.

Kane took to social media after the win and congratulated Dier after making his debut at the Allianz Arena.

Kane has excelled since leaving Spurs over the summer, netting a staggering 26 goals in 25 appearances.

The England captain has also provided nine assists along the way but Bayern remain four points behind league leaders Bayer Leverkusen.

As for Dier, he could be in line for a run in Thomas Tuchel’s side after replacing the injured Dayot Upamecano last night.

The Englishman clearly wasn’t suited to Postecoglou’s demands and it was no real surprise to see him move on this month. But after a difficult past 18 months at Spurs, a move to one of the biggest clubs in Europe certainly raised a few eyebrows.

Nevertheless, after eight and a half years at Tottenham it felt like the right time for Dier to seek out a new challenge and we wish him every success in his new venture.
