Modric - Will he stay or go ?

Hatch99

What do yis think lads ? My heart says he will stay, but unfortunately my head says he will go, hopefully Im wrong.

Antisocialiser

I think he'll stay! Unless Levy has been merely trying to bump up his price...

STAY.

Caveman1

I think he'll go, Levy just wants to get a good price for him, 22mil bid from chelsea was a joke (im a Chelsea fan) I reckon closer to 30 million or even money plus a player. It will be hard for Spurs to compete with wages and champions league football being offered to him

BERBA

please stay luka

electrobanana

Levy on skysports news saying luka modric understands he will not be sold..fair play to levy he's sticking to his gun's on this one.I say fair play to him but he'll have show ambition in the transfer market or i fear he'll be getting a few more knocking on his door to leave.

mushykeogh

i think he will go, depends on the offer from chelsea i suppose. I wonder could levy talk him into staying until christmas? Maybe see how we go in transfer market and ealy part of the league?

Cianan2

I voted with my heart and said he'll stay!

SuprSi

I think he'll stay. One more season to prove we can get back into the CL or he'll be gone. He may not want to stay, but he signed a massive contract last season, we're in pole position and with Levy playing hardball he doesn't have much of a chance. I don't think he'll do a Berbatov and sulk either.

He'll stay (for now) - I'm sure of it. The ball is in our court. Things might change at xmas if his form is poor and we are not at the races but if we are going well and he is on form then these stories will disappear.

My crystal ball says:

Levy will stick to his guns which if he does I'll buy him an ice-cream but if we don't sign some serious talent by August come January(looking at the fixtuers) we could be really behind the pack and he'll go.

BUT in answer to the OP I'd be fairly confident that he's staying unless someone comes in with an offer that we fan refuse like £40m or something. Levy's language to m dosnt sound like it's about the money.

Why do people still think that Modric is going to go? Levy issued a statement saying that none of our star players were going to be sold this summer. A bid rejected from Chelsea and another statement from Levy saying Modric is going nowhere. Then when Modric meets Levy for "crunch talks" about his future. Levy exits from the meeting saying that Luka understands the situation and will remain a Spurs player because "it's not about the money". Seems pretty clear Luka is staying, my guess would be this is our crunch season. We don't get top 4, he's gone.

mickman

i think he will stay for one more year , same as fabregas did. if we win a cup and qualify for champs league then anything can happen but if we dont get champs league then he is gone for sure next season

congrats to levy to not be pushed around

His agent has said it's unlikely that Modric will hand in a transfer request.

his agent is prob trying to get him to hand one in but its not what luca wants to do hopefully

He'll stay for at least 1 more year anyway. The real shame in all this is that once again its money and nothing else. We are as close to challenging for the title as Chelsea imo. The new manager hadn't even been named at CFC when Modric said he wanted to go there.

I cannot remember the last time Chelsea outplayed us in a match.

2nd Row Donkey

^^^ Good point

We are in with as much chance as chelsea, we have a better chance then liverpool and arsenal and if city win it next season I'll be shocked.


He cant seriously be on only 35k though.
No wonder he's pissed off.
****e players like Jenas, woodgate etc are probably no 50% more then him minimum.

keane=cock

hopefully he will stay but if he doesnt go this summer i feel he will next summer.

if levy sells him this year he will basically be putting every spurs player in the shop window for the right price!

At the outset I am a Chelsea supporter. I think he should stay at Spurs though he would be welcome at the Bridge.
Sadly the days of club loyalty are a thing of the past.
I have been told that Modric is on £35k per week a relatively small wage for such a talented player. I think the matter can be resolved if Spurs pay him what he would earn at another club.
Roll on the new season.

Oh deluded spuds.

If you lads actually believe that then god help ya's, Chelsea challenge for the title year in year out while Spurs didn't make the CL this year and you think you have as much chance as Chelsea for the league. Cop on.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to change my mind on this one. Modric has come out today and said he wants out. Looking like berbatov all over again. I just hope Levy has a clear strategy on this one. £35 million on deadline day is not worth jack sh1t. If he's going, on our terms, at our time. Keep Kranjcar if we're losing Modric, and start all over again. There's no doubt he's been heavily tapped up, and Chelsea approached him before us. £22m is a joke, you'd get that for an England u-21.
I voted he'd stay yesterday, now it's going to be hard to keep him.

Ye'd be nothing without your Russian sugar daddy. It's one thing to have a pop at spurs in the Chelsea threads but this forum is for Spurs fans. Many fans have posted valid points in here and we respect them but don't come in here slagging of Spurs.

Exactly.

He probably started supporting Chelsea in 2004 too.

I've no respect for people like him whatsoever.

bogtreader

Its looking like Berbatov all over again i voted he will go but i hope
i am wrong as was said before no club loyalty any more
Kiss the badge this week with one club
Kiss it next week with another club and few extra grand in their pocket.

It's deluded to think Spurs are title challengers and have as good a chance as Chelsea as winning the league, it's pretty laughable actually. Spurs weren't title challengers last season and they won't be next season.

Wrong, it wouldn't matter what team I support anyway I would still find it laughable that some Spurs fans actually think they have as much a chance as Chelsea at winning the league.

Should've had a Luka the small print
Here is some advice for footballers who do not want to stay with a club for five years: don't sign a five-year contract.

This seems to be the problem for both Carlos Tevez and Luka Modric. They wanted the benefits of a long-term commitment - the security, the inflated wages, the loyalty bonuses - but not the reality.

Numbers should have meaning, even if words do not, and it is up to Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur to demonstrate this.

After reading what he appears to have said in the croatian media, let him go, 30 mill and drogba. Anything less, tell him hes staying till next summer.
How did Barry play for villa the time his move to liverpool didnt go through? Did he perform or go through the motions?

mickman

exactly. he is going around saying that levy wont let him go etc, levy was hardly going to accept 22 million. he is trying to pump up the price and if a 40 million bid came in then we would accept it

sirione

he will hand in a transfer request, says so on sky sports this morn, spurs cant keep him now, player power is gone mad

frag420

There has to be some accountability when players like Modric sign a 5 yr contract and then demand a transfer once tapped up by a more "desirable" club.

There must also be something done about money teams such as Chelsea and M'City unsettling players in other teams with big money offers.

I say let the pr*ck go, do a Carrick and get as much as we can for him and cut our losses. I dont think we can afford to bench him for the season. NO less than 40m I say..............
