Sir Alex Ferguson sympathizes with Harry Redknapp in the Modric saga – English Premier League
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson has come out before his team’s vital English Premier League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur and stated that he genuinely sympathizes with Harry Redknapp in the Luka Modric transfer saga. Modric who plays as
a central midfielder for Tottenham Hotspur rose to prominence during the last two years at White Hart Lane when he carried Tottenham to a UEFA Champions League qualification finish in the 2009-2010 Premier League season.
Tottenham consequently participated in the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League and made it to the quarterfinals where they were dealt two emphatic defeats by Real Madrid. Nonetheless it was a financially rewarded experience for Redknapp
and his men as Tottenham cashed in on their maiden season at the top of European football.
 Now as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 chase Luka Modric, Redknapp has been determined to keep hold of the Croatian midfielder but it seems that it is only a matter of time before the Blues snap up the Tottenham playmaker. Spurs have already shrugged
off a 22 million pound bid as their valuation of Modric is far above that figure as stated by Redknapp earlier on in the summer. However it seems that Tottenham are warming up to the idea of selling Modric as the transfer window nears its conclusion as they
can invest the incoming money in other departments of their squad.
Sir Alex Ferguson whose Manchester United were chasing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luka-Modric-c22857 transfer saga.
He said, "Tottenham have said they're never going to sell him. That's what http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Levy has said. But then you've a feeling if someone comes in with the right offer he will be sold, and that's difficult for Harry, to work out Daniel Levy's thinking.”
Sir Alex further noted, "I know Harry wants to bring in a couple of players, no doubt about that, because what he has achieved the last couple of seasons has been brilliant. So it has been difficult for Harry getting through the
summer not quite sure what's going to happen. It could yet happen before the window closes that he gets two or three players in, and I think he's hoping for that”.
Redknapp himself has confirmed that Modric might not start against Manchester United as he is not in the right frame of mind to do so. Nonetheless, United will want to capitalize on the troubles inside the Tottenham camp and gain
all three points to keep pace with Manchester City who are now at the top of the Premier League summit after their 3-2 win over Bolton Wanderers on Sunday, 21st of August, 2011.
