Modric: injured knee, Corluka joining Spurs?

Yesterday, Luka Modric was to play against Dortmund in a friendly, but rested the whole game instead. Earlier during warm-up training, Modric broke down with a knee injury. It’s likely that the injury was caused during the Celtic game and now just got worse. However the injury isn’t believed to be all that serious but he will still get checked out by a specialist.

The match ended with Tottenham Hotspur winning with a comfortable 3 to nill from Borussia Dortmund.

It is also believed that Tottenham Hotspur will close the £7 million deal taking Vedran Corluka to White Hart Lane anytime now. Corluka is a versatile defender (but usually playing right back) and a Croatian National Team mate of Modric.
