Luka Modric reportedly has little interest in entertaining a transfer away from Real Madrid, rejecting an opportunity to return to the Premier League with Manchester City.

With less than six months remaining on his contract at the Santiago Bernabeu, the 36-year-old is free to discuss terms with foreign clubs.

A number of teams from England's top flight - including Man City - are allegedly monitoring the situation as they look to bring in the former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder.

However, according to El Nacional, Modric has already turned down the chance to pen a two-year contract with Premier League leaders City.

The report claims that the Croatian legend remains intent on extending his stay at Los Blancos, even though they are yet to present him with acceptable terms.

Modric remains a key play at the La Liga giants, making a total of 21 starts and one substitute appearance in all competitions this season. body check tags ::
