Real Madrid to bid £30m for Modric

Real Madrid are prepared to pay Tottenham £30million for Luka Modric after coach Jose Mourinho has told the club to press ahead with an offer, Daily Mail reported.

The Madrid giants are confident of finalising a deal ahead of rivals Manchester United who have been closely linked with the 26-year-old playmaker.

The Croatia midfielder's move to the Bernabeu would give Tottenham's new manager funds to move in the transfer market.
