The 26-year-old first signed to Tottenham back in 2014 from Sporting Lisbon for a fee of £4.5 million.
The man earns pennies he deserves more tbh

Since then, Dier has gone on to make 239 appearances for the Lilywhites, in which he has managed to score 11 goals and provide 11 assists along the way (per Transfermarkt).
I think he deserves a 100k contract.

Earlier this week, Dier was handed a four-match ban and a £40,000 fine for climbing into the stands at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to confront a fan back in March.
Now that this latest news on Dier and his future at the club has been doing the rounds on Twitter, it has sparked a big reaction among Spurs fans, who have been sharing their thoughts on the situation.
Would you give Eric Dier a new and improved contract at Spurs?
Yes
No
While some supporters believed he should be retained by the club, there were some Spurs fans suggesting that they should get rid of Dier altogether instead of offering him a new contract.
Bye bye Dier.
