Inter reportedly faced competition from Tottenham Hotspur for Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric.

The broadcaster explains Spurs would have signed the Croatian on the same terms as Inter but ultimately passed up the opportunity.
It appears to correspond with Modric rubbishing a claim that he tried to force a transfer to the Nerazzurri.
