Modric approved

Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that Barcelona is still working on the transfer of Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Luka Modric (22). The Croatian has now been followed by all usual scouts and they all agree the player has the right profile. Once sports director Txiki Begiristain has also given his approval, Barcelona will have to face a battle with Premier League teams Chelsea and Arsenal, with Dinamo Zagreb wanting to make big money out of their star.
