El Mundo Deportivo says Modric has asked Dinamo's board not to consider any offer other than what arrives from Barca.

"It excites me enormously the prospect of playing for Barca and I will do everything I can so that the dream becomes reality," said Modric. "It fills me with pride to know that the Blaugrana coaches have been following me."

Barca president Joan Laporta is expected to hold talks with Dinamo next week when he is in Croatia for the UEFA Congress.
