Luka Modric told to play …

Harry Redknapp could play against Hearts tomorrow and is likely to face Manchester City on Sunday.                                                                                                                                                                        

Chelsea target Modric missed the 3-0 defeat at Manchester United on Monday after he was left out of the squad – It is thought his head was not in the right place after becoming unsettled by speculation concerning his future.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

Redknapp told press: “Luka has to get on and play now. I need him back playing.”                                                                                                                                                                                                

And followed up with: “The situation is that he is not for sale.”                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

It is widely thought that Modric was upset following his meeting with Daniel Levy, following his Chairman’s decision to reject Chelsea’s bids.
