Chelsea chairman on Modric bid situation

Luka Modric - Tottenham Hotspur News

Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck admits he does not know whether the club will pursue their interest in Tottenham’s Luka Modric

“Most clubs don’t want to talk about players they are interested in but the Modric situation became public,” said Buck.

“We did make an offer, (Tottenham chairman) Daniel Levy has rejected that offer and I don’t know if it will go any further, we will have to see.

“Andre didn’t give us a shopping list but he did tell us where he thought we could improve.

“He did mention some players but it was not a case of ‘I want this guy and I want that guy’ because it is more than just selecting the players.

“It is whether the player is available, what the price is and every other dynamic that goes with it.

“But Andre is working very well with the board and directly with Roman (Abramovich) in terms of looking at the squad and trying to see whether there is anything that needs to be done.”
