Luka Modric Signed For Tottenham

Tottenham have confirmed that they have agreed to pay Dinamo Zagreb £16.6million for midfielder Luka Modric.
The 22-year-old Croatian international signed for Spurs at the weekend in a deal which was believed to be in the region of £15million.
And Tottenham have now verified that they are set to pay Dinamo a fee of £16.6million in instalments over a period of four years, but Modric must still obtain a work permit before his six-year contract is finalised.
A statement on Tottenham's official website read: "Tottenham Hotspur plc is pleased to announce that agreement has been reached with Dinamo Zagreb and the Croatian international midfielder, Luka Modric, age 22 years, for the transfer of his registration to Tottenham Hotspur FC for a total consideration of 21 million euros payable in instalments over the next four years.
"The player's contract is for a period of up to six years and the agreement is conditional upon the granting of a work permit."
