Modric deal hinges on sale of Tottenham star

Reports suggest that the transfer of Luka Modric to Inter Milan hinges on Real Madrid precuring the signature of Tottenham playmaker Christian Eriksen.

Sky Sports Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio claims that Spurs have put a huge 200-million-euro price tag on the Dane’s head to ward off any Madrid attempts.

Modric’s agents will speak to Real Madrid after the Super Cup tie with Atletico Madrid tomorrow night, and are expected to push for the Croatian to leave to join the Serie A outfit.

However, Real Madrid are unlikely to sell without a suitable replacement lined up.

Eriksen’s current contract at Tottenham has two years to run and there has been speculation suggesting that the club are working on a new deal for the playmaker.
