Luka Modric 'to join Real Madrid'

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Luka Modric will reportedly fly to Spain on Thursday to have a medical with Real Madrid.

The 26-year-old has long been linked with a move to the Spanish champions, but it had been understood that both clubs were refusing to budge on their valuation of the player.

However, according to Sky Sports News, Spurs have accepted an initial offer in the region of £24m - with various add-ons in terms of appearances.

Modric will therefore fly to Spain on Thursday with a view to discussing personal terms with the club.
