Real Madrid: an improbable way out is offered to Luka Modrić

Luka Modrić’s love story with Real Madrid is about to end. If Kylian Mbappé is closer than ever to joining the Merengues, the two men should, in fact, not rub shoulders on La Liga pitches. The reason is simple: at the end of his contract in June 2024, the former Tottenham player should not extend his adventure in Madrid. Restricted to a role of luxury joker, the Croatian midfielder, who had refused to give in to the Saudi sirens in recent months, then arrived at a turning point in his career. Five times winner of the Champions League, three-time Spanish champion and 2018 Ballon d’Or, the 38-year-old will have to make a choice.

Retire, join the technical staff of the current La Liga leader, a proposal already formulated by Carlo Ancelotti, or find one last exciting challenge… So many possibilities available today to the Madrid maestro. With this in mind and according to the latest information from The Athletic, Luka Modrić still seems driven by the idea of ​​shining on the green rectangle. An ambition which would also have pushed him to politely refuse the Mister’s advances on a possible future collaboration within the Madrid organization. So what about its future? Approached by the Saudi Pro League or even the MLS in recent months, the 1m72 right-hander could ultimately opt for a more familiar destination.

A first contact established between the different parties!

According to the Croatian media 24 Sata, the president of Dinamo Zagreb, Mirko Barisic, offered him to return to his training club. During a long conversation, the leader, in fact, assured the Madrilenian that the door was always wide open to him. An approach which did not fail to seduce the person concerned and a trajectory which would then be comparable to that of his former teammate and great friend Sergio Ramos, back at Sevilla FC. “He has one year left on his contract, I will call him this winter, of course. How could it be possible that Dinamo wouldn’t want Luka Modric back? I know members of his family. For him, it would be logical to return to Dinamo at the end of his career, so why not? had already said the president of the Croatian team to the media Index.

Following in the footsteps of Ivan Perišić, back home and now in the colors of Hajduk Split, Modrić could also be tempted by a romantic transfer in the coming months. If there should be no shortage of new exotic requests, the ball is now in his court. Having left Dinamo Zagreb in the summer of 2008 to join Tottenham for a check estimated at €22.5 million, the Croatian international (172 caps, 24 goals) has, in any case, not ruled out this possibility. If he is not expected to position himself before the end of Euro 2024, organized from June 14 to July 14 in Germany, the local media are starting to dream of an incredible comeback. To be continued…
