Eric Dier will hope his Bayern Munich career will continue as it started, with all three points — although next time he’ll surely hope to be on the pitch.
The defender was in the stands on Friday night to cheer on his old mate Harry Kane and the rest of his new teammates, as they beat a ten-man Hoffenheim 3-0 at the Allianz Arena.
Dier has quickly settled in at his new 'home' after joining the German giants on loan from Tottenham early in the January transfer window.
The surprise transfer was expected to be a permanent one, but ultimately proved to be a loan for the rest of the season, when he’ll be either free to join Bayern for nothing or sign for another club with his Spurs contract due to expire.
For now, though, he’s enjoying moving from a Premier League top-four contender to one of the biggest clubs in Europe as they look to win a 12th straight Bundesliga title.
Following his arrival, Dier posted online that it’s taken no time at all to feel settled at the historic club.
And it appears he’s enjoying his new surroundings as he posted a selfie from the stands during Friday night’s victory, accompanied by the simple caption of a house emoji.
Dier had earlier teased his appearance for the game, writing on X, formerly known as Twitter: “It’s only taken 24 hours to feel the size and history but also the warmth of the club.
“I can’t wait to get to work and start this new journey. Thank you all for your incredible welcome.
“See you at the Allianz.”
