Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Luka Modric is flattered
by claims Liverpool want to sign him. Reports in England suggested
Tottenham had made moves to try and land the highly-rated Croat,
who has also been linked with Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea in
recent months.
But the media in his homeland claim it is Liverpool who have
made a firm offer for the 22-year-old, who looks certain to leave
Dinamo in the summer. Modric is already a lynch-pin of the Croatia
national side and his club would be looking for around £18million
for their prized asset.
Modric told Vecernji list: "I don't wish to discuss possible
transfers, but if Liverpool really want me, then this is fantastic
and I am truly honoured. "I watched the Champions League
quarter-finals and the way they crushed Arsenal. Only the greatest
and the best can play such a match against strong Arsenal."
