Reports out of Italy indicate Luka Modric has been in talks with Inter Milan, hoping Real Madrid would let him out of the final two years of his contract.

Modric is 32 years old and is making around €9 million per year after tax.

Inter already have Croatia internationals Marcelo Brozovic and Ivan Perisic on their books, and took right-back Sime Vrsaljko on loan from Atletico Madrid earlier this week.

Florentino Perez told reporters that Real Madrid only let Modric leave for Inter if the Italian club paid €750 million.
