Luka Modric has turned down a new contract offer from Real Madrid.

However, Modric has turned down the first proposal put forward.

Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda stated: "The president offered him two more years of contract, but earning the same as he earns right now, €8m net per season. Modric asks that the salary be increased to €10m and for the moment there is no agreement.

"I am afraid that if Madrid does not stretch its arm there will be no agreement."
