Luka liking life at the Lane
Tottenham playmaker Luka Modric has rebuffed speculation that he could leave White Hart Lane for Barcelona.[LNB] The Croatia international has been linked with a move to Camp Nou with the Catalan giants reportedly willing to pay upwards of £30million to secure his signature.[LNB]Modric is happy at Spurs and committed his future to the club as recently as May by putting pen-to-paper on a new six-year contract.[LNB]The 25-year-old is flattered to be linked with a move to Pep Guardiola's side, although he is happy and settled in England's capital and enjoying being a Tottenham player.[LNB]Modric insists the only way you will get him flying to Barcelona is if Harry Redknapp's side draw the Primera Liga giants in the knock-out phase of the Champions League.[LNB]"Me going to Barcelona? Yes, I really hope that, but only as a Tottenham player in the next round of the Champions League," he joked in an interview with SportskeNovosti.[LNB]"Let's be serious. All this is just so-called exclusive rumours, but I don't know who really needs them. Are they funny? Yes, they are very funny for me.[LNB]"But of course, it is always nice to see your name being linked with such a club as Barcelona, but one has to keep their feet on the ground.[LNB]"At the end of the day it's just rumours without any foundation. And I really don't want to talk about all this anymore. Since I moved here newspapers are always talking about me leaving for somewhere else.[LNB]"First it was Chelsea, then Inter Milan and also Manchester United, now it is Barcelona. But the only truth is that I just recently signed a new contract with Tottenham.[LNB]"London is such a great place and at White Hart Lane I feel just like home. I know that the fans are happy with me, I have all the support I need to develop even more.[LNB]"I can make my football dreams come true with Tottenham and that is why all my thoughts and also my future is with this club."
