Iker Casillas has declared that Croatian midfielder Luka Modric is a player worthy of a place at Real Madrid.
Spanish captain Casillas believes that Modric can offer something different to the La Liga champions if his proposed move from Tottenham Hotspur goes through.
Casillas said: "I know him. It's been some time that he's been a player at Tottenham, and he has been in the eyes of the world.
"At the last European Championship he was there. He's a very good player. I believe that he's at Real Madrid's level.
"The boss can form this team and if he's a player that will reinforce us we're enchanted to have him in our group and take another step forward in this next season."
Modric's future remains undecided after he was forced to issue an apology for going AWOL from the Spurs' pre-season tour of North America.
