Fee Agreed For Modric

Tottenham have settled on a fee with Real Madrid over the sale of Luka Modric . The Sun says Spurs last night agreed a £36 million fee with Real Madrid for Modric. The Croatia midfielder had already said he would join Jose Mourinho’s side but was waiting for the clubs to reach a deal. He almost ruined his chances of a move by refusing to go on Spurs’ pre-season tour. But Real officials persuaded him to apologise and return. Madrid were reluctant to meet Spurs’ valuation but Mourinho wanted Modric as soon as possible.
