Tottenham centre-back Eric Dier could be set for a career lifeline in January.
The England international has been out of favor at Spurs under boss Ange Postecoglou this season.
Dier, who is frozen out of the first team squad, wants a move away from the club as soon as possible.
Per The Times, the 29-year-old may have a chance to return to old club Sporting CP in Portugal.
The Lisbon-based team are offering their former youth star a chance to resurrect his career.
Dier started at Sporting when he was only seven and speaks Portuguese fluently.
