In a video posted to their social media accounts, star men including James Maddison, Yves Bissouma and Destiny Udogie could be seen entering their training base.

The clip concluded with Dier arriving for work.

Dier, 29, has played 360 times for Spurs but is yet to feature at all this season – having only made the bench in three of their nine matches in all competitions.

As he fist-bumped the cameraman, Dier smiled as he said: “You don’t need to film, I know you’re not gonna use it.”

The cameraman responded: “Come on man, we’ll get you in.”

Fans were left upset after seeing Dier’s self-deprecating response.

One tweeted: ” Eric Dier saying “You don’t need to film, I know you’re not gunna use it” has completely ruined my day.

“A great servant to the club and someone has given so much for the badge completely disrespected. Very sad.”

And a second wrote: “Genuinely feel for Dier here. Likely be on his way in 10 weeks, but to see the guy so dejected after his service to us, you can’t help but have some empathy for what he’s going through.”

A third commented: “Feel for Eric here.. great servent and a brilliant professional. Shame it has become like this.”

Another simply added: “@ericdier you’ve been a superb servant to this club.”

Dier was not on international duty, having earned his 49th and most recent England cap at the World Cup in Qatar.

He has entered the final year of his Tottenham contract and is expected to leave after nearly a decade of service.

Earlier this month he was linked with a return to previous club Sporting Lisbon.

Dier could move back to Portugal on a free transfer in the summer, although discussions have recently been held over a cut-price January move.

He played 32 times for Sporting after coming through their academy before joining Tottenham in a £4million deal in 2014.
