Modric back in training

Luka Modric has returned to training with Tottenham, the Barclays Premier League club have confirmed.

Modric has been fined for missing training amid speculation of a move away, with Real Madrid thought to be the favourites for the midfielder's signature.

But a statement on the club's official website read: "The club can confirm Luka Modric has returned to training today (Monday) at Spurs Lodge. The coaching staff will now determine the remainder of his pre-season preparation."
