Modric drops big Chelsea hint

Luka Modric has caused a lot of stir by admitting that he wants to leave Tottenham this summer.

The Croatian midfielder has been repeatedly linked to Manchester United and Chelsea, and he has spoken of his desire to leave White Hart Lane.

“I want to leave Tottenham as friends. I have enjoyed my time there, but now it is right for me to look at another club,” Modric told Daily Mail.

“I have an arrangement with the chairman. When I signed my new contract, he said that, if another club came to sign me, they would consider the offer.”

The Croat has also revealed that he prefers Chelsea over Manchester United.

“Chelsea are a big club with an ambitious owner. They have great players and they have ambitions to fight for the title and win the Champions League.

“I want to stay in London. I am very happy here and so are my family. I like the city.”
