Eric Dier zu West Ham United?

West Ham have made initial contact with Tottenham regarding a potential move for England international Eric Dier, FootballTransfers can reveal.
We understand that David Moyes is looking to add Premier League experience to strengthen his squad during the January transfer window, following the club’s impressive first half of the campaign.
Moyes, who is impressed with Dier's defensive abilities, sees the versatile player as a suitable addition to West Ham's backline- sources inform us that the Hammers' manager is believed to view Dier in a similar mould to Manchester United's centre-back Harry Maguire, a player West Ham came close to signing during the summer transfer window before the Red Devils knocked back an offer.
Dier's contract is up at Spurs in 2024, meaning that the club would have to cash in now or face the risk of losing him on a free.
