In demand: Modric
Luka Modric admitted he is still waiting to hear whether his current club Tottenham will accept an offer from Chelsea and allow him to move across London.
The Croatia international has made it clear he wants to move to Stamford Bridge, but manager Harry Redknapp and chairman Daniel Levy have made it clear they don't want him to go.
They have already rejected bids of ?22m and ?27m. Sportsmail reported recently that Chelsea were prepared to use Yossi Benayoun as bait in their attempt to prise Modric.
The 25-year-old said: 'I don't want to talk about that, I said before what I think and that's it.
'I said a lot of things before and still everything is the same at the moment. I will see - I'm still waiting.'
With his own White Hart Lane future in the balance, Modric also gave his opinion on the future of Robbie Keane, who expects to leave before the end of the month.

'I would like him to stay but I know he wants to play,' Modric said.
'If that is not possible at Tottenham, he will probably try to find other options, but I would like him to stay and to play for us. He's a great player. What can I say? I don't know what will happen.'
