Tottenham midfielder Rafael van der Vaart appears pessimistic on Luka Modric and Gareth Bales future at the club.
Both Chelsea and Man Utd have been heavily linked with a move for Modric, while Bale has also had his future questioned. Despite Chairman Daniel Levy and manager Harry Redknapp both insisting the players are not for sale, van der Vaart is unsure if Modric and Bale will remain at the club:
“It’s difficult. When a player wants to leave and go to another club, it is difficult to keep them,” Van der Vaart told Sky Sports News.
“When a player is unhappy it’s also not a good thing.
“Luka, [Gareth] Bale, they are not players that play for money – they play to win something. If they feel they have to go to another club it’s their decision. But I hope they stay because they are fantastic and really important for the club.”
