Surely Tottenham Hotspur would not accept this deal?
A report in Italy has suggested that Napoli are hopeful of bringing Tottenham Hotspur defender Eric Dier to Italy in the winter.
BlastingNews is reporting that Dier’s representatives have been contacted by Napoli sporting director Christian Guintoli with regards a potential loan move, with a buying option of €12 million (£10.25m) included in any deal.

It is of course not the first time Napoli have been linked with the player. In July 2015 Tutto Mercato Web reported that Napoli had made a request regarding a potential transfer of Dier – which was formally denied by Spurs.
Surely that will be the answer yet again.
Dier has not been in his best form this season. The arrival of Victor Wanyama has certainly shaken the England international – who was one of the few England players to come out of Euro 2016 with any credit.

However, he remains just 22-years-old, recently signed a new deal at the club and is a versatile talent clearly in the long-term plans of Mauricio Pochettino.
There is simply no way Spurs would accept that offer from any team when it comes to Dier’s services.
This might just be posturing from Napoli, and Spurs will hopefully keep hold of the talented England star for some time.
