Luka Modric has warned team-mates Alvaro Morata and James Rodriguez that the only way is down if they decide to leave Real Madrid for the likes of Chelsea or Manchester United.
The two Los Blancos stars are expected to complete moves away from the Bernabeu this summer. United, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are all in the race to secure the £62million signature of Rodriguez, while Antonio Conte's side are also set to bid £70m for Morata after missing out on Romelu Lukaku.
Both players are at the exit door having struggled to nail down a regular first-team spot at the Bernabeu under manager Zinedine Zidane.
