I am all for Inter getting Modric. He would seriously improve our team, and I don't care about his age. But €92m wages over 4 years, and a transfer fee of €40m? Thats a bit too much for him, he is 33 after all.
If we are planning to spend 130-150m on a player, why not go after SMS or Pogba or Eriksen? They may not be as good as Modric, but they are damn good and will be for many years.

All of these players transfer fee would already be around that 150 mark. On top of that pogba and erikson would probably come at a wage very close to Lukas and only SMS would probably accept half of what Luka is rumored to be getting. But even with SMS give him one max two good seasons and he s also gonna demand a salary in that region so whats the point?
Only real upside these other guys have over modric is that in 4/5 years they ll still be worth a lot of money.
Also were you not saying that Ronaldo at 30 mio a year hence 60 with taxes was not that expensive. I know in terms of marketing and revenue CR wil bring more than probably any other player on this planet but if ronaldo at 60 a year with a 100 mio transfer fee is a good deal than that rumored modric deal even with the high wages is an amazing fucken deal.
Also i dont see modric declining fast he does not rely that much on speed or physicality so i have no worries that he ll decline fast. Think of pirlo at jube.
