Luka Modric has revealed that he is pleased to hear of speculation linking him with a move to Barcelona.
Yesterday Spain's assistant coach Paco Jimenez claimed that Barca had been scouting the Croatian playmaker during Euro 2012.
When asked about Barcelona's reported interest, the 26-year-old replied: "Of course, I love to hear things like that, but it just motivates me more to play better and show that I can be even more dangerous."
Recent reports have also linked the Tottenham Hotspur player with moves to Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
It is believed that Spurs will demand at least £30m for Modric's signature.
