"Privately, it was pretty easy, I've settled in very well. I can quickly adapt to a new environment - like in Germany, and now it's the same here. I had a lot of time to prepare this summer. In terms of football, it always takes some time to get used to a new team, new teammates, a new coach, a new club. But I feel very much at ease at the club and in the dressing room now."
"I definitely follow them. You automatically follow every club you have ties to. That goes for all my former clubs - and Bayern will always be a very special place for me. I still talk to my friends there and to many of the staff. I hope I'll be back in Munich soon to watch a match or drop by the S äbener Strasse."
Eric Dier grew up at Sporting's youth academy in Lisbon and credits the academy with shaping both his playing ability and his personal identity. He joined AS Monaco and experienced an easy private adaptation to life in the south of France while taking more time to adjust to footballing aspects such as integrating into a new team. He maintains strong ties to Bayern Munich, follows their matches, keeps in contact with former teammates and staff, received congratulations after his Champions League penalty, and hopes to return to Munich to visit the club.
