The Luka Modric soap opera is coming to a close. Discussions between Tottenham and Real Madrid in the last few days have been very productive, with the clubs close to reaching a fee they can both agree on. The transfer fee no longer seems to be the issue and an agreement is imminent. The operation is expected to be finalised for 32 million euros plus bonuses. Only a few days ago Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was asking for 38 million euros, and he began negotiations demanding 45 million euros, a fee Paris Saint-Germain were believed to be ready to pay until Modric made it clear he only wanted to join Real Madrid.
Now the only factor preventing the transfer being confirmed is Tottenham's need to find a replacement for the Croatian, and the Londoners have asked Real Madrid to wait until they've signed a new midfielder, or at least are on the verge of singing someone. Some of Spurs targets include Porto's Moutinho Partizan Blegrade's Medo Kamara or France international M'Vila, who is currently at Rennes.
Whoever the new midfielder is, it seems as if it's now a case of when Modric signs for Madrid rather than if.
