Harry Kane has named Eric Dier as the player he would not want to sit next to during a long flight, revealing that the Tottenham defender falls asleep anywhere and everywhere.
Kane might have departed Tottenham in the summer but he has still got some great friends at the club, not least Dier, who he has played alongside for club and country for nine years.
It has been well documented that the striker and the centre-back are close friends, with the duo, along with Matt Doherty, even forming a mini movie club during away trips when the Wolves man was at the North London club (The Athletic).

Eric Dier is not a good travel companion, says Kane
However, the Bayern Munich star has admitted that the 29-year-old is not great company during long trips as he is a heavy sleeper.
When asked which teammate he would not want to sit next to during a long-haul flight, Kane told ESPN: “I’m going to put Eric Dier in there, he just sleeps anywhere, no conversation from him, he’d probably sleep the whole 12 hours or however long the flight is, so, sorry Eric, I need more from you.”
Interestingly, the possibility of Kane reuniting with Dier has been raised recently, with Football Insider reporting earlier this week that the defender has emerged as a shock target for Bayern Munich.
The outlet suggested that Thomas Tuchel values the Tottenham star’s versatility and that the centre-back is open to a switch to Bavaria.

Even if Kane gives glowing reviews of Dier to Tuchel, I would be extremely surprised if Bayern made a move for the Spurs star. I also do not think the 29-year-old would be too keen on warming the bench at the Allianz Arena.
