Luka Modric's agents are to have a crucial conversation with representatives of Real Madrid on Tuesday to deal with the transfer of the footballer to the Spanish club, according to the British newspaper 'The Telegraph'.

Tottenham are standing firm to their original request of 45 million euros, while Madrid insist they will not go higher than 35. Meanwhile, the player is training in London without the rest of his teammates, who are on tour in the USA. The Croat trained today, just as he had on Monday together with Pienaar, who is also close to leaving the club although his move to Everton seems to be at a standstill for now.

As 'The Telegraph' points out, Paris Saint Germain are prepared to meet Tottenham's demands, but the player only wants to play in Madrid. Another potential buyer, Chelsea, has been told that Tottenham won't sell. The British paper cites sources close to the player in explaining that Modric didn't apologize to Villas-Boas for refusing to travel to the US.
