According to a report by Italian journalist Carlo Laudisa in Gazzetta dello Sport’s weekly magazine ‘Fuorigioco’, Luka Modric has not yet given up on the idea of moving to Inter. He was offered a contract renewal by Florentino Perez and refused that proposal, which is a clear indication about his desire to leave Madrid.
The Croatian midfielder began to think about Inter as a possible destination as early as May and spoke to his Croatian teammates while they were in Russia for the World Cup. The midfielder’s wife was decisive in his moves to both Tottenham and Real Madrid, and would have also been a key factor in his move to Inter, but due to Croatia’s path to the World Cup final, there was very limited time for negotiations.
But during the next transfer window, these talks and negotiations could reopen as Inter are waiting and are aware of the player’s willingness to join them.
