Chelsea fighting battle to sign Luka Modric

Chelsea fighting battle to sign Luka Modric

18 August 2011 - 20:47

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas is trying his very best to bring Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric to the club, however, there remains some disagreement between Chelsea and Tottenham's valuation of the midfielder.

  • Chelsea ready to pay €75m for Eduardo Camavinga
  • Chelsea planning move for Strasbourg striker Joaquin Panichelli

  • The Croatian midfielder is valued by Tottenham at around 34m GBP, whilst Chelsea are not prepared to pay anywhere near that amount and are fixed at a reported 25m GBP price.



    Modric had revealed earlier in the summer that a move to Chelsea certainly appeals to him; but Tottenham will try their best to keep the talented playmaker.



    Villas-Boas admitted that talks were still ongoing: "We have approached Tottenham before regarding the player.



    "I don't know if it's viable or not and to what extent we can go regarding his price because we are speaking about a high amount and nothing else basically.



    "I just have to study the rest of the market and hopefully find a solution for my team."
