With 18 months left on his contract at Tottenham Hotspur, Sport reported on Monday that Christian Eriksen ‘does not hide his desire’ to wear the shirt of Real Madrid.
Tuesday’s edition of Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo claims Los Blancos president Florentino Pérez is planning to make quality additions to the squad at the end of the season.
One of the areas he looks to strengthen is the midfield as the future of 33-year-old Luka Modric is still unknown, with the Croatian potentially leaving to get a last big payday elsewhere.
The Spanish capital club could consider selling the World Cup finalist, if they receive a good offer for him in the summer.
Real Madrid’s chief has already identified Modric’s replacement as in the mind of Perez, the one he ‘likes the most’ is the Spurs star.
It is explained the La Liga giants have ‘already taken position’ in order to take the Denmark international away from the north London club. 
Eriksen will have a year left on his contract in the summer, if he doesn’t extend his current deal, and Real Madrid could have an upper hand while negotiating with Daniel Levy for the player.
It would be one out, in Modric, and one in, Eriksen, if the plan goes as Mundo suggest it could.
