Spurs to offer Modric new deal to ward off interest
News | admin | May 22, 2010 at 9:35 am
Tottenham are planning talks with midfielder Luka Modric in an effort to ward off transfer bids from Premier League rivals Manchester United and Chelsea.
The Croatian international has three years to run on his existing deal at White Hart Lane and the club are planning to reward him with an improved deal.
Modric is currently not one of the big earners at the club, but they hope fresh terms will help to convince him to ignore interest from United and Chelsea.
Spurs have recently done the same with Gareth Bale and Michael Dawson, following impressive displays during the past season.

Give him what he wants mr levy! Luka is as important to us as rooney to utd,lampard to chelsea,torres to liverpool! Fantastic player the way he played in our run in against the gooners,chelski and were world class!
Spot on Keanoson!
He must not be allowed to leave for any amount. We want to build on what we've got, not sell our best to others!
But always remember he is still under contract anyway and we do not need/have to sell him if we dont want. And we dont want.
Yeah but it's very important for the team spirit and his performances that he actually wants to stay…An improved contract could settle this!
He is worth every penny we have to pay he is irreplaceable and remember we are going into champions league we need him do no sell at any price. Phil from DEVON
He must not leave,pay him the same as the top men and he'll improve along with the team.
Absolutely imperative we keep the little man at the club.. Hopefully for many years to come. We can't be a feeder club to the elite any longer. We need to compete, not supply!
Sign him up, Levy.
Yep Modric has to stay! Top four clubs don't sell to each other, and we are a top four club now. Modric has a very important part to play.
The little man is a "creative gun" pay him what he needs..
Cant see it happening for these reasons. 1st 28million is being quoted, that'll make a poor return on our 17 million. 2nd… still has 4 years of a six year deal to run, and is being offered an extension. 3rd Why sell to not only our London rivals but European ones also? And lastly newspapers talk utter cobblers anyway.
he is r only one player who can unlock the door at times we have 2keep him givehim a better deal and watch him grow in2 one of the best in the world
