Real Madrid are reportedly prepared to offer midfield playmaker Luka Modric to Tottenham Hotspur to help smooth a deal to sign star striker Harry Kane. Modric will be used to drive down Tottenham's hefty asking price for attacking talisman Kane.
Spanish source Diario Gol (h/t Guy Giles of Football Insider) has reported Spurs want at least £176 million for Kane, a fee Los Blancos won't pay, but the La Liga club are willing to offer Modric as part of the deal.
Modric originally left Tottenham for the Spanish capital back in 2012.
