Thought it was a lie and the club have confirmed it's bs. Do papers like the Telegraph just write this crap for web traffic or are they trying to unsettle players I wonder.
Where did they confirm its bs?
Not doubting you, just interested.

Is it possible that MP has told Levy that Dier is no longer thought of as a core player? Last summer he replaced Dier in midfield, so I find it plausible he might do it again and find a specialist right sided defender.

For me Dier takes a lot of credit for our excellent defensive record, so we certainly should not be considering selling one of our most flexible and consistent players.
no not possible

It was not only possible but it happened last summer, when after a brilliant season, Dier was replaced in midfield - to be fair we had a better season with Wanyama there, so it is hard to argue with it.
We certainly have been linked with right sided defenders this summer...

If we sell Dier this transfer window I'll buy a season ticket at the Olympic Stadium and go to every one of their home games, then come home after every game and dip my head in next door's recycling bin and sing "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" at the top of my voice while banging the outside of the bin with my wife's best shoes until I get taken away and put in solitary confinement.

Honest.

Never know what to believe in the press. Too many stories about Mourhino tapping him up to feel completely happy that we're definitely going to keep him, but we should definitely keep him. Time to trust in Poch and Levy I guess.

Interested to hear people's views on why Dier wouldn't want this move?

It's an obvious question why he would want to leave a club that finished 2nd for a club that finished 6th, just to make more money.

He's young. He has plenty of time to make money. First, he has a reputation to develop.

His best mate plays at Tottenham.

London.

Pochettino.

Any more for any more?

Anyway, the issue doesn't arise. It's plain enough that the club will stonewall any and all offers this summer, whatever Dier thinks. I'm sure he knows that and I expect he is relaxed about it.

It's not like it was 2-3 years ago, when Man Utd and Man City routinely finished above us. Now we've been superior in footballing terms for 2 years. It would be a step down, except financially.
