Will Missing Out On Modric Affect Inter Psychologically?

Milan based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport have pondered whether missing out on Luka Modric will have psychological on Inter this coming season.

Inter have been after the Croatian international for a number of weeks but faced great difficulty when it comes to getting a deal done due to Real Madrid’s reluctance to let him leave the club.

“Inter fans hope that the courting of Modric will end differently. The words from Real Madrid director Emilio Butragueño yesterday evening dismiss – definitively? – the dream and the Nerazzurri fans wonder if the arrival of a quality midfielder is still necessary.

“In general, though, there is great satisfaction after a big transfer market, full of signings: Stefan de Vrij Lautaro Martinez, from Radja Nainggolan to Keita Balde, they are all reinforcements that can help Luciano Spalletti to shorten the gap with Juventus, but on the psychological level will the no for Modric create psychological consequences?”
