Tottenham's Eric Dier describes his childhood in Portugal

Tottenham's Eric Dier tells Football Focus about growing up as part of Sporting Lisbon's academy in Portugal, after moving there when he was just six-years-old.

English-born Dier explains the academy was more than just a place to become a footballer, it taught him the values and discipline that he still follows today.

The defender left Sporting in 2014, signing a five-year contract with Spurs in a £4m transfer.
