Spurs midfielder does not know if Chelsea move will happen

Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric has revealed he is still unsure what the future holds as he waits to find out whether a move to Chelsea materialises. The Blues have had two bids rejected for the Croatia international this summer as Spurs chairman Daniel Levy and manager Harry Redknapp have repeatedly stated their star asset will not be allowed to leave. Modric made no secret of his desire to move across London when news of Chelsea's interest surfaced and he insists his position has not changed. But the 25-year-old is reluctant to discuss what might happen as he focuses on the start of the new Premier League campaign. "I don't want to talk about that, I said before what I think and that's it," Modric told RTE Sport. "I said a lot of things before and still everything is the same at the moment. I will see - I'm still waiting."

Keane future

Robbie Keane is another player who has been tipped to leave White Hart Lane this summer, having fallen down the pecking order over the past couple of seasons. He has already had loan spells with Celtic and West Ham, but Modric is a big fan and hopes Spurs keep hold of the Irishman. "I would like him to stay but I know he wants to play," Modric said. "If that is not possible at Tottenham, he will probably try to find other options, but I would like him to stay and to play for us. "He's a great player. What can I say? I don't know what will happen."
