What a ridiculous comment.
In practice, no other club that operates at his playing level is going to improve his wages so no, he isn’t for sale.

To be fair, he could end up being Gollini mk II.
I don't think he will, for reference, but it's definitely something we'll be anxious to see work out.
New keepers are always a bit of a nail-biter........ We've just been spared the worry for a decade.
Rest assured though...... Upon his first error (which is inevitable sooner or later) there will be uproar from a painfully predictable corner of the 'room'.
I think he knows already and he definitely wants to move on.
West Ham would do something this stupid.
You on about?? Everything has a price whether it’s being marketed or not
Don’t tell me if some fool offered thfc 30 million great British pounds for the contract of Eric dier we wouldn’t sell him
It’s not ridiculous it’s a well trotted trope ‘everything has a price’ …. That includes Eric dier
The telling fact and the point I’m making is no one has offered
Agreed.
Anyone dropping both bollox on Chiesa is getting a guy that spends half the season injured
Nile John........ain't that in Egypt??.......
Do you not have the foggiest idea how a contract works?
Dier isn’t a slave or an indentured servant. You don’t sell-on a contract. You get a fee to basically tear the current one up and stand aside to let the player agree to a new one with a different employer. His current contract is bilaterally binding. One side can’t terminate it without the other’s permission unless there is explicit language in it that allows it.
. 
Yes. Negotiate a partial settlement if needed but get him gone. Takes more than he gives, better for all parties if he’s gone. Has nothing to offerSo pay him the wages he'd earn for the 2023/24 season anyway and spend more money on a backup that likely won't get used given our lighter fixture schedule?
I'm not a fan of Dier playing a single more minute for us, but as long as him sticking around doesn't stop the acquisition of two more CBs this summer (which I don't think it will), it's a problem that will take care of itself in a year.
Agree but he would jump at the chance at a 30M transfer anywhere *
* Saudi is an exception
Dier? No he doesn’t. He intends to stay and run his contract down or, as they say in footballer’s parlance, ‘fight for his place’.
It don't get jokes.
Poch did too for a while.
Nice to employ similarly positive ‘area managers’ through the org. We have 1000 staff now, probably x5 as many as when they bought us
If we can drop his last year's wages; that'll do.....
Why? He has a fairly good injury record minus the ACL tear.
League games last 6 seasons (38 total)
17/18 - 36
18/19 - 37
19/20 - 34
20/21 - 33
21/22 - 14 (ACL)
22/23 - 21 (ACL)
I haven’t watched him post injury, so he may never be the same, but if he is injury prone, then so is Bentancur.
I know. Anyone shows that level of interest and it will turn his head.The offer thatRealCoolYid was talking about was to Spurs not a payment to Dier
