Faes joins Monaco... and Dier is reluctant to leaveLeicester City defender Wout Faes has joined AS Monaco on loan for the remainder of the season. West Ham had asked about Monaco’s Eric Dier but it’s understood the ex-England centre back is reluctant to leave the Principality. The 33-year-old travelled down on Monday ahead of agreeing terms on a loan deal. The club stole a march on Aston Villa, who had offered a loan with an obligation to buy. The 20-year-old has been recalled from his loan spell at Swindon Town amid interest from Boro and Championship rivals Bristol City.
