Luciano Spalletti's side approach World Cup finalist
Inter are targeting a move for Real Madrid star Luka Modric this summer, journalist Gianluca Di Marzio reports.
The Serie A side have made contact with the midfielder's agent already and he discussed a potential move with Croatia team-mates and Inter players Ivan Perisic and Marcelo Brozovic during the World Cup.
As a result of their interest in Modric, the Nerazzurri are holding back on their pursuit of Arturo Vidal.

Maurizio Sarri’s fate as Chelsea’s head coach will in effect be determined over the remainder of this month as the Italian seeks to convince the club’s hierarchy that he can recover some poise and still deliver Champions League qualification for next season.

Premier League clubs have spent £922m and counting  with  just  seven days remaining until the transfer window closes. Yet for the first time in more than a decade, they look set to be  usurped from the top of the spending table by La Liga's  summer spree, which has already passed the £1bn mark for  the very first time. After Spain's dominance in Europe was broken last season,  Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have all flexed  their financial muscle by pulling off three of the 10 biggest  transfers of all time. That has pushed spending by Spanish top-flight clubs to  £1.06bn as of midday on 1 August, and with more than a  month to go until their transfer window closes, they could  close in on the Premier League's record spend of £1.4bn from  2017. Eden Hazard, Joao Felix and Antoine Griezmann are three of  those to head to Spain but other than Arsenal and  ...
