"Real Madrid purchased London's safeguard Luka Modric for 38 million euros (about 130 million Lt). On Monday, the Croatian underwent a medical examination and signed a five-year contract. In addition, as part of the deal, the clubs will now cooperate more closely on football and commercial matters. "Luka played amazingly and we really didn't try to sell him, but we are happy that, if it had to happen, we reached an agreement with Real," said Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy. "We hope for a long-term and productive partnership with the Spaniards." Modric played in England since 2008, when he was acquired from Zagreb's Dinamo for over 20 million euros. In 150 matches, he scored seventeen goals and became one of the brightest stars of the team. This summer, the footballer did not hide his desire to move to Spain, so he did not appear in the first two Premier League matches of the season."
