Luka Modric expected to STAY at Real Madrid

The season is coming to an end, but the minds of the various team managements are already planning for the next season. Real Madrid still have the icing on the cake, the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, but they are also moving on these kinds of issues.

One of the most important ones throughout the campaign has been the issue of renewals, such as that of Luka Modric, for example. The midfielder is a legend at the club, although his 38 years have not passed in vain. He has lost prominence and everything indicated that his end as a player of the club was near, as his contract expires on 30th June 2024.

However, as the days go by, the situation could have done a 180. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Croatian has already told Real Madrid that his main intention is to remain at the club despite his secondary role. In fact, he has already rejected all the other proposals, prioritising staying at the 'Merengues'.

On the other hand, the Croatian's agent, Vlado Lemic, spoke to the Arab media 'Kooora' and spoke about the future of the player: "The most likely thing is that he will stay one more season and continue to write history". He added: "Real Madrid is the best club in the world and is led by the best president in the history of football. Luka Modric is a Madridista who loves the club and considers it his home".

In addition, another of the points that Modric and the board of directors agreed on is that the economic issue would not be a problem. He is aware that he is already one of the veterans in the squad and would be willing to reduce his salary if necessary. The renewal is getting closer and closer and could be confirmed in the next few days, according to Fabrizio Romano.
