In limbo while Real Madrid clears house. That's where Luka Modric is right now. Real's ability to transfer players out of the club conditions, at least in the short-term, the possibility of finalising the arrival of the Tottenham player - one of the two players that Mourinho wants to strengthen the team ahead of his third season in charge.
The transfer is on track, and the feeling at the club is that if they push on quickly, the Croat could be at Mourinho's disposal by 15th July, the day that the team returns to training. Once terms are agreed with the player, a deal must then be reached with Tottenham. The English club originally wanted €50m for the player. Then they wanted cash plus Sahin (the Turk said no), while Real Madrid value Modric at €35m.
But far from speeding things up, Florentino Pérez has hit the brakes. His orders are clear. Before signing, sell. The Real president wants to raise money from player sales. Kaká, Altintop, Lass, Gago and Carvalho are all players that, despite being transfer listed, are still at the club,
Mourinho wants 26 players in his squad. To last season's first team squad, add the arrival of Gago (returning from a loan period at Roma), as well as Morata and Jesús (who join from Castilla - Real Madrid's B team). published marca.com-cobmarin
