Niko Kranjcar stands up for fellow Croatian and teammate Luka Modric over ongoing transfer speculation.

Spurs winger Niko Kranjcar has defended teammate Luka Modric over ongoing transfer speculation.

The Croat's comments come after manager Harry Redknapp confirmed that he would not be playing striker Modric against Man Utd tonight because "his head is not right".

Chelsea is the likely destination for the services of Modric, 25, in a reported £30m bid.

"It is his decision to make and something he has to go through with the club," Modric told the Evening Standard of his fellow countryman. "No one deserves to judge him if he decides to go because he has given three fantastic years to the club.

"I think as a friend you support them no matter what they decide to do. He has played every game with his heart and if he gets an opportunity or the club decide to sell him, everyone should support his decision. It is his decision not ours and it's not up to us to convince him to stay or go."
