In an interview with UEFA.com, Croatia star Luka Modric talked about his likely summer switch away from Croatia…
Luka Modric admitted again how keen he is to switch to FC Barcelona in June.
He told UEFA.com, “My goal is to move to bigger club during the summer and into one of the world’s best leagues.
“I am ready to play in any of the five best leagues, but I am most attracted to Spain, especially Barcelona. I am honored that they are interested in me.”
Allegedly Arsenal wanted to sign him last summer. Modric confirmed that Arsene Wenger showed his interest in bringing him at the same time as Eduardo, but he decided to wait and take the step to Barcelona.
A group of visiting journalists from Catalunya have named him the ‘new Cruyff’ and have given a famous Cruyff-esque number 14 shirt. “The journalist from El Mundo Deportivo cheered me up with this gift,” he said.
Here it goes a video with a few goals from Modric:
