Saudi Pro League sides Al-Ahly and Al-Ittihad are reportedly pushing to sign Real Madrid Playmaker Luka Modric in January.

Defensa Central says the Saudis are willing to pay the veteran star €200 million per season.

The Croatian has ten days to respond to this lucrative offer.

However, Real Madrid will do their best to block the transfer as they still consider the 38-year-old one of their key players.

His deal at the Santiago Bernabeu runs until the end of the current campaign.

Modric has found life difficult this season at Madrid due to the lack of playing time, and has repeatedly expressed his desire to leave if the situation remains without change.
