Eric Dyer's future is uncertain. For now, it is highly likely that he will leave Bayern Munich.
On the 12th (Korea time), Germany 'Barbarian Football Works' was put on the release list in the week of 'Baharian Football Works'. Dier, who recently received attention from Juventus, said he is receiving love calls from Middle Eastern teams.
Dyer has now completely lost ground at Bayern. On the 12th, Avent Zeitung, Germany, published an article saying, `How did he end up in crisis under Dyer's fall, Bang Sang Kompany?' Avent Zeitung is 'Die has now been forgotten in Bavaria. He played only 143 minutes this season, a disappointing record. Coach Kompany needed a quick center back for aggressive tactics, and for this reason, Dayot Upamecano and Kim Min-jae are being selected. Dier, who doesn't have the necessary speed, is not needed by Bayern at the moment,' he said.
Things have changed 180 degrees. Bayern Munich sought to recruit defenders from the transfer market last winter. Bayern organized the squad to bring in Harry Kane and Kim Min-jae last summer, focusing on the defense. Luca Hernandez was sent to Paris Saint-Germain and Benjamin Pavard to Inter Milan, which lacked center-back resources. Josip Stanisic, who can play various positions, also left on loan to Leverkusen. The only center back resources left in Bayern were Kim Min-jae, Upamecano, and Matthijs Duricht. Bayern eventually paid the price for this choice. Duricht and Upamecano were injured alternately, leading to Kim Min-jae's overwork. When Kim Min-jae was sent to the Asian Cup, recruiting a new center back became a necessity, not an option.
The player Bayern took was Dyer. Dier is a suitable recruit for Bayern in that he can even play defensive midfielders, another weakness of Bayern. Bayern was on the verge of signing Fulham's João Palinha for the defensive midfielder position last summer, but it failed. Bayern has had difficulty operating midfield this season due to the absence of professional defensive midfielders. Kimihi stepped up, but it fell short of expectations. Dier was also linked with Bayern last summer. In particular, there was an active recommendation from Kane. Kane was a teammate of Dyer when he was at Tottenham. The two played as Tottenham captains and maintained a good relationship. England's Football Insider'Kane pushed hard for Dyer's move to Bayern. The two were very close friends from Tottenham. Kane told Dier about life in Germany and Tuchel and the club's head coach also praised him and recommended him.
Dyer has lost ground at Tottenham. Coach Enze Postecoglou prepared for a major reform upon taking office, with Dyer excluded. Dier had the firm trust of Antonio Conte until last season. Played as a key resource for the three-back. However, he was pointed out as the main cause of Tottenham's sluggish performance due to continued sluggish performance. He repeated frequent mistakes throughout the offense and defense, such as slow feet and anxious build-ups. Despite the slump, locker room influence has not diminished. Dyer, who was in the leadership group with Kane, was criticized for his actions and words that broke the team's chemistry several times with inappropriate leadership.

Dier made his Bayern debut quickly after leaving Tottenham in the transfer window in January and is constantly receiving opportunities. In the end, he succeeded in a complete transfer. Dier will play for Bayern until June 2025, fulfilling the contractual obligations required to make the transition fully. Furthermore, he has secured the main position. Coach Tuchel used the Dyer-Dericht combination to defend stably from the back, beating Kim Min-jae and Upamecano, who played aggressive defense. Dyer seemed to be revived as if he was expected to return to the English national team.
However, after Kompany's appointment, Dyer was completely put on the back burner. For Kompany, who emphasizes aggressive defense by raising the line, Dyer was nothing short of Gyereuk. Diricht, who already has a similar style, has been sent to Manchester United. Dier remains in the Bayern squad, but rarely gets a chance. In fact, he became a forgotten player.
In the meantime, Kim Min-jae flew fast. Kim Min-jae started in all the matches Bayern played this season. He also showed some anxiety in the opening game, but he played in the game afterwards. He is doing his best to change the evaluation of Bild and Kicker, who were famous for billion won. Even if he is injured, Kompany's choice is Kim Min-jae. Kim Min-jae was also considered the best center back in the world this season by CIES, an organization affiliated with the International Football Federation.
Breaking the Line is 'Kim Min-jae has a magnet. It's a higher concept than a presence. The way he controls the surrounding space, the way he turns the ground into his fortress, is different from other defenders. There is no strong impact, but it occupies an absolute advantage in its own space. In a world obsessed with a tactical revolution that glorifies attacks, Kim Min-jae is the purest and most classic defender. A player who breaks the frame while respecting the frame, he praised it.

Then 'Modern soccer is demanding more from defenders than ever. Kim Min-jae is the blueprint for the 21st century center back. His pass range is beyond imagination. Not only short and sharp passes, but also long passes are solid. It is a path with a clear decision and purpose. The calmness is remarkable.
With the situation like this, there are talks that Dyer will leave the team. Fortunately, there are quite a few teams that want him. Rumors of a return to the English Premier League came out last month. Football media TBR said `Diary hopes to renew his contract with Bayern, but there is no guarantee of playing time'Diary is likely to return to the Premier League. Brighton, Brentford and Wolverhampton are all watching Dyer's situation' Dyer was certainly an attractive card, as he had adapted to the England stage.
Recently, the Middle East club has emerged as a destination. Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Qatar are reportedly watching Dyer. Dyer is a player with his own name value, so he is a preferred player in the Middle East. Germany's TZ is eyeing UAE's Al Jazeera Dyer. The club in Abu Dhabi showed interest in him. However, Al Jazeera prefers to transfer Dyer in the summer if he can sign him as an FA. In addition, several Premier League clubs are also showing interest in Dyer.

Bayern's defense is currently thin due to injuries to Hiroki Ito and Yosif Stanisic. TZ is also in a disadvantageous situation for Kim Min-jae. He has been complaining of ankle pain since early October, but Kim Min-jae said he has to endure until the winter break. Kim Min-jae also has a problem after the match against Frankfurt. It's hard to recover." Tidying up Dyer, there is also the possibility of adding a new defender. Bayern will enter the winter break after an away game in Mainz on the 14th and a home game against Leipzig on the 21st. If Dier is also unavailable in these two games, his time at Bayern is likely to be over.
