Inter looking to pull off sensational move for Real Madrid star Modric

Multiple reports claim Inter are looking to
  
pull off an audacious move for Real Madrid

star Luka Modric.

The midfielder was awarded the Golden 

Ball at the 2018 World Cup for his 

performances for Croatia, and is 

considered one of the best players in the 

world in his role.

According to Sky Italia, Gazzetta dello 

Sport and FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri 

have contacted the agents of the former 

Tottenham Hotspur man, and they haven’t 

closed the door on a move.

Any deal would prove very difficult, not 

least because of Modric’s salary, but the 

Beneamata are keen to try and make the 

deal happen. 

The transfer would serve as a response of 

sorts to Juventus’ capture of Cristiano 

Ronaldo, and with the arrival of Sime 

Vrsaljko, Modric would form a Croatian 

diaspora with Marcelo Brozovic and Ivan 

Perisic.

Sky reports that this is why a deal for 

Arturo Vidal hasn’t yet been officially 

confirmed, as Inter want to find out if it’s 

possible to move on to concrete 

negotiations.

It’s still more likely than not that Modric 

will sign a new contract with Real Madrid, 

but it appears there is genuine interest 

from the Nerazzurri.
