The former Porto and Chelsea manager has admitted that Tottenham might have to part ways with Luka Modric but such a step will only be taken if a concrete offer comes in for the Croatian midfielder. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luka-Modric-c22857’s future has been
engulfed in a shadow ever since Spurs failed to qualify for the UEFA Champions League under their previous manager Harry Redknapp.
The North London club finished fourth in the Premier League season but http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786’s triumph in the UEFA Champions League final prevented them from qualifying for the tournament itself. Redknapp has since then been dismissed as the
club manager which has intensified debate over Modric’s future as the Englishman was seen as a uniting factor when it came to the playmaker’s relationship with Tottenham’s chairman, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Levy.
There is no doubt that Tottenham have benefitted from Modric’s talent as he has been the driving force in their midfield as far as the English Premier League is concerned. In the last summer transfer window, Modric was linked
to a move to Chelsea when Villas Boas was the Blues’ manager but things have changed since. Real Madrid are now interested in signing the midfielder and there is speculation that Manchester United are also keeping a keen eye on the situation.
Villas Boas said, "The interest we have from various different clubs shows the importance of the player and what he's done for Tottenham. It's fair to say that the club respects Luka's ambitions and his willingness to move on and
he respects the fact that he's an important player for the club and can help us move forward.”
He added, "Ongoing discussions will continue with these clubs until we reach an agreement which is acceptable for each party." Tottenham will definitely look to get a sizeable fee for their creative midfielder in order to improve
their overall squad strength before the new Premier League season kicks in at White Hart Lane.
