Summary

Eric Dier is a footballer who plays for Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and England. Although Eric was born in Cheltenham, his family moved to Portugal when he was 7 - where he grew his talent at Sporting Lisbon through the youth ranks. Training in Portugal was a key aspect of Eric’s life, teaching him about respect, commitment and the importance of embracing discomfort.

Eric shares with us the valuable lessons he’s learned from his career to date - “Comfort is the enemy.”
