"Real" Madrid star and one of the best midfielders in the world Luka Modrić, in an interview, stated that with the Spanish club he achieved what he dreamed of, but emphasized that one of his wishes was to win trophies with London's "Tottenham". In 2012, "Real" acquired the Croatian for 35 million euros from "Tottenham", where he reached the peak of his career in Madrid - winning the UEFA Champions League three times and is now considered one of the best midfielders in the world. "In my career, I regret only the fact that I couldn't win any trophies with 'Tottenham'. We were a strong team, playing beautiful attacking football, but it happened that we didn't win anything," the Croatian told "FourFourTwo" magazine. "I didn't want to say goodbye to this club in this way. I hoped that we would be able to win at least one trophy. I hope the fans understood my decision to leave, as I was led by dreams. "I always feel great respect for the 'Tottenham' team, as it was the first team that gave me the opportunity to play in one of the strongest leagues in the world. I still follow the team's results and find time to watch their matches. This team always plays attractive football," said L. Modrić. When asked about the crisis that hit the "Real" team this season, the Croatian replied: "We definitely didn't expect such results, but that's football. Last season things were much better, but I can't say that we are playing very poorly this season - sometimes we just don't give it our all." L. Modrić, who has already won 13 titles with "Real", has played 242 matches wearing the "white" jersey.
