Luka Modric to Real Madrid - DONE

[SpunkyBackpack]

Luka to Farwell? Good luck to him i say. To be honest i don't know how well he shows his livestock but i reckon he can make it there.

Good luck Luka!!

Well now my above post doesn't look weird, silly or out of context at all....

Just like to wish Luka luck with sitting on Real Madrids bench next season. Great player but do not see how he wil get into their team.

Ahead of Khedira? Easily. It will be Alonso, Modric, and Ozil, an astonishingly good midfield that will try to compete with Barca's midfield.

Surely he'll compete with Alonso (and lose imo). Khedira is a defensive midfielder isn't he? Luka is hardly going to be making loads of tackles.

Alonso will be the more defensive I think.

Alonso, Modric, and Ozil would kind of emulate Spain's midfield when they use Alonso, Xavi, and Iniesta. Seems to me like they initially bought Sahin to be in Xavi's role but he never got his chance.

They're saying the fee is £27m. A bit low imo but it's the fail so probably wrong.

I hope so because if true, that's a fucking joke and Levy will have a lot to answer for.

From OS:

The Club can announce that it has signed a partnership agreement with Real Madrid FC and reached agreement for the transfer of Luka Modric, subject to medical, to the Spanish club.

The partnership agreement will see the two Clubs working together in respect of players, coaching, best practices and commercial relationships.

Real Madrid FC President, Florentino Perez Rodriguez, said, "The strong relationship and affinity between our two clubs has resulted in the cementing of a longer-term partnership and the successful transfer of Luka Modric. We are delighted to welcome Luka and look forward to working closely with Tottenham in the coming years."

Daniel Levy, Chairman, Tottenham Hotspur, commented, "Luka has been a terrific player for us and, whilst we preferred not to part with him, we are pleased that it is to Real Madrid, a club with which we now look forward to sharing a long and productive partnership."

Luka made 160 appearances for the Club, scoring 17 goals after joining from Dinamo Zagreb in the summer of 2008.

We wish him well for the future.

Finally, let's move on.

Thanks for the memories Luka, simply one of the best players I've seen at WHL.

Nice one, does that mean we become Real's feeder?

 

[freeeki]

Hopefully it means they'll chuck a couple of players our way this window...

I bet we play a friendly every year against them, maybe even a mini-cup tournament.
