Branislav Ivanovic has told Luka Modric to abandon a move to Real Madrid or Manchester United and join European champions Chelsea instead.
The in-demand Tottenham playmaker was the Blues top transfer target last summer but opted to stay at White Hart Lane for another season.
Tottenham's failure to reach this year's Champions League - as a result of the Blues beating Bayern Munich in the final last month - has made the Croatian reconsider his future with a big-money exit looming.
And Ivanovic has urged one of the star men at this summer's Euro 2012 to head to Stamford Bridge. 'I know there was interest in the transfer window before,' he told reporters. 'Chelsea as a team have needed a player with these qualities.
He would fit in quickly and strengthen the squad. He has been in England a long time and knows about the way football is played on the island and the mentality of the players.
He has exceptional quality, and moving to a bigger club is necessary for him to take the next step in his career. 'I think at Chelsea he would adapt instantly and become a better player.
He should come to Chelsea - it won't go wrong!' Real boss Jose Mourinho is a big admirer of Modric, as is United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, while French giants Paris St-Germain could also enter the running for the 26-year-old.
