Bayern Munich want Luka Modric to replace Xabi Alonso

Bayern Munich have been linked with a sensational move for Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric as they step up efforts to replace Xabi Alonso, who will most probably retire from football at the end of the season. The Croatian international is one of the best midfielders in the world and was instrumental in Los Blancos’ last two Champions League triumphs.

Bayern manager Carlo Ancelotti shares a very good relationship with the former Tottenham Hotspur man, due to his time at the Santiago Bernabeu and will try to persuade him to leave the club for Germany in the summer. The Allianz Arena outfit will have to break their transfer record to sign the Croatian.
