Germany's TZ said on the 15th (Korea time) "Bayern Munich centre-back Eric Dier wants to continue playing for the team, and his wishes are increasingly likely to become a reality."," he reported.
Dyer's contract expires this summer. Dyer has always wanted to sign a new contract with Munich and has said he is happy with his family in Germany on several occasions.
For Munich, Dier became a precious being. Whenever Upamecano and Kim Min-jae were away this season, Dyer replaced them. Whenever he is given the opportunity to play, he is evaluated to have faithfully performed his role by showing his ability to manage the game without any special mistakes.
Germany's Sky Sports also said that Munich could not rule out extending its contract with Dier.
In particular, Dyer will take on an even more important role as Kim Min-jae is out of power due to an Achilles tendon injury. Munich's trust in Dyer is known to be unexpectedly high.
Eric Dier moved to Munich in the winter transfer window last year. Son Heung-min played with Tottenham for a long time as a teammate of Son Heung-min, but he was excluded from the starting lineup and sought another team. First of all, Harry Kane, who was moving to Munich, actively recommended Dyer's recruitment, and some said that the transfer to Munich was made.

"At first, it seemed unlikely that Dier, Harry Kane's former teammate, would receive a new contract, but his performance in recent weeks has changed the leadership's mind," TZ said. "The performances in recent weeks have convinced the club's management, and now we are determined that a contract extension could actually help the club."," he said. "Therefore, negotiations between the players and the club are scheduled to take place in the next few weeks," he added.
Dyer has already actively expressed his desire to stay in Munich several times, so the club's choice is left. Dier played full-time in six Bundesliga games this season, five of which Munich won.
"Kim Min-jae will be out for a while due to injury, so Dyer is expected to take on an important role once again," the media said. "If he continues to play a stable game in the future, signing a new contract will be a natural order."
Meanwhile, Kim Min-jae is not expected to play in the 7th and 8th rounds of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup due to an Achilles injury. The national team was also called off.
Earlier, Munich coach Bang-sang Kompany said at a press conference on the 14th that `Kim Min-jae will not be able to play right away' and"Even the Korean national team will not play in the World Cup qualifiers.'
