This is the article which started the Modric rumours. I have translated it into English

For months Juve have been tracking the young midfielder (Modric) to know more we interviewed his Italian representative who also talked about another player. Hernanes of San Paolo, another player linked with a move to Italy.
After a fantastic Euro Modric has not been able to show his full potential at Spurs,why so?
"Obviously a player doesn't play alone but with a team. Tottenham have had a few problems this season, with the sacking of Juande Ramos and the arrival of many new players contributing to this. Its logical in a squad who started badly Modric has not been at his best. I've seen him 3/4 times and has always impressed, but if the whole team does not play to their best it can also effect players like Modric".
Modric has been linked with Juventus. Could he work under the style of Ranieri?
"Maybe not today, but in 2/3 years Modric will be one of the best midfielders in Europe, because he has real quality. And Also he is young, and has plenty of time to improve. He can play in Central Midfield, off the front man and also to the role of Nedved. Hes quick and an eye for goal. Tottenham don't want to lose Modric, and Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea had approached him before his move to 'White Hart Lane'. He chose Spurs to develop in a squad not of top level". (hard to translate the top level bit, lets just say the top 4 or Milan Inter Juve Barca Real ect.)
Are their possibilities that he will come to Italy this summer?
"Yes, but it depends on money. Modric will not leave London for less then 24/25 milion Euros. I dont think Italian teams can afford this figure. Only Inter,who can count on their extreme wealth and support of their chairman, can keep up with the money in English football, the others are light years behind. Modric will only be able to join inter, But inter have no need for a centremidfielder".
In this light is it probable that he will stay in England maybe with a bigger team?
"Yes, Simply because the player will cost too much to go to Italy".
