Real Madrid have identified Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic as the man they will go after in the event that Luka Modric leaves the club amid continued interest from Inter according to a report from Corriere della Sera.
Modric sensationally started being linked to Inter this time last month and the Croatian midfielder’s desire to leave is obvious yet Real Madrid are adamant to open up and allow him to depart this transfer window, a transfer window where multi-time world player of the year Cristiano Ronaldo has already left the Santiago Bernabeu.
With just two days left until the transfer window shuts until the winter, time is certainly against Inter in their bid to land the 32-year-old. No talks have formally taken place between Inter and Real Madrid due largely to the fact that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has continued to postpone meetings with Modric to discuss his future with the club.
