Luka Modric spoke about his situation at Real Madrid.

As he approaches his 39th birthday, Luka Modric is aware that he is in the twilight of his immense career. The Real Madrid midfielder, however, recently expressed his desire to continue playing at the highest level for Los Blancos.

An unfailing determination that commands admiration, despite a sharp decline in playing time in recent seasons. Indeed, the comparison of the figures is eloquent: 3435 minutes played in 2021-22, 3162 in 2022-23 compared to only 2235 for the 2023-24 season. Especially since for this last financial year, the captain of Croatia only started 23 times out of 45 matches played under the orders of Carlo Ancelotti.

“I never gave up”

Faced with this delicate situation, Modric does not hide his bitterness: “It was difficult for me to understand and assume my new role, he confided for Partidazo de Cope. I will never give up, I think I have been an example of attitude in every sense of the word. I don’t think I caused any problems for the coach or anyone. »

“My relationship with Ancelotti went more or less well, as always, with a lot of respect. Of course, when players aren’t playing, if they tell you they’re happy, they’re lying. This is a situation that I experienced. I don’t get used to it but I never gave up.”added the 2018 world vice-champion three days before the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund.
