The midfielder, named
Player of the Tournament at the World Cup this summer, is a key member of Real Madrid’s side. But with Julen Lopetegui now in charge at the Bernabeu, Croatia star Modric appears keen to jump ship.
And fresh revelations in Italy have detailed how a proposed move to Inter Milan has come about. According to Gazzetta dello Sport,
it was Modric’s wife who called Inter asking if they would be keen on a deal.
The player is currently on holiday in
Sardinia [Italy!!!] but will return to Madrid this weekend for pre-season.
And Di Marzio claims that at that point, he will discuss his future with Real President Florentino Perez.
Should he tell the Bernabeu chief of his intention to leave, more formal negotiations will begin between the clubs.
Corriere dello Sport speculates that if Modric does join, the most likely deal would be for an
initial loan - with Inter having the option to sign him permanently next summer.
My only concern would be his wage, as he is currently earning €10m net left on the two years of his current Real Madrid deal. I bet Ausilio will negociate a lower deal [especially if Luka asked to join] and it will be spread over 3 years. Also, we keep signing new sponsorship deals and these will keep rolling with the UCL coming up, so this is not a dream any more.
