By AFP More by this AuthorLONDONEric Dier has signed a new four-year contract to keep him at Tottenham until 2024, the Premier League club announced on Tuesday. The 26-year-old England midfielder, who has filled in at centre-back under Spurs boss Jose Mourinho, has been at the club since arriving from Sporting Lisbon in 2014. "I am really happy to continue here and commit to this new journey we're on," he told Spurs TV. Spurs finished second in the 2016/17 Premier League campaign and reached last season's Champions League final but Pochettino was fired months later. "The club gave me my opportunity in England and it has given me so much since then," said Dier, who has scored 11 times in 239 appearances.
