Luka Modric New Contract: Croatian international, Luka Modric has been growing younger with time and with his masterclass performances on the field he’s proving that age is just a number. The 37-year-old is still dominating the midfield for Real Madrid. Notably, he’s not only doing it for his club but also for his international team, Croatia. As a reward, Real Madrid are going to renew Modric’s contract one more time for one year. Follow La Liga LIVE Updates on InsideSport.IN.
According to reports, Luka Modric will be signing a new contract with Real Madrid very soon. All the terms have been agreed between both the parties and only final signatures are left. This will be Modric’s third contract extension of one year at Real Madrid, as he has been doing so since 2021. The new contract will extend Modric’s 11-year run at the club.
The Croatian international joined Real Madrid in 2012 from Tottenham Hotspur. Initially, the transfer was said to be one of the worst transfers but all of that changed later. Modric has now won 3 La Liga, 5 UEFA Champions League, 2 Copa Del Rey, 4 Super Cup, and 5 Club Work Cup trophies at Real Madrid in these 11 years. Modric even won the Ballon D’or in 2018, ending the dominance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Modric has featured 28 times this season in La Liga and has scored 4 goals and 3 assists.

Not only that, but they are also keeping a close eye on Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who played a huge role in midfield to help Napoli clinch the Serie A title after 33 years.
To add more attacking options, Real Madrid are interested in Bayer Leverkusen starlet Moussa Diaby, Erling Haaland, and French star Randal Kolo Muani.
