It has been speculated today in the Mail on Sunday that Arsenal are to join the race to sign Croatian midfielder Luka Modric. The Dinamo Zagreb star has been linked with a move to the Premier League for some time after impressing whilst on international duty.Both Chelsea and Man City are set to launch bids for the 22-year old come the opening of the January transfer window and it appears as though now Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is set to step in.
It is likely that whoever is to sign the player will have to cough up as much as £20 million. Modric caught the eye of Wenger during last seasons Champions League when Modric shined in a third qualifying round match between the two sides.
I would personally love to see Modric come to the Premier League because of what I have seen and heard he is something special. He is a terrific play maker that also helps out with the defence and would be a great asset to any side.
