Luka Modric speaks about his future. Luka Modric, a midfielder for Real Madrid, has been mum about his future despite his contract expiring at the end of the current campaign. Since moving from Tottenham Hotspur to the Santiago Bernabeu 11 years ago, the Croatian has made over 460 appearances for the team. The 37-year-old Modric has had a challenging season as a result of his weariness after the 2022 FIFA World Cup. In 31 appearances in various tournaments, he has six goals and three assists to his credit.
His contract expiration date is in June, which has sparked speculation about his future. He is hesitant to announce whether he will be staying in Madrid longer, stating: “Contract extension? I’m at ease. I am unable to speak since, unlike last season, I have not yet spoken to the club. Of course, I want to stay, but not because I’m Luka Modri, but because I deserve it.”
With five UEFA Champions League victories and three La Liga championships, Modric has established himself as a legend at the Santiago Bernabeu. If he does go, he says, his affection for the club won’t change: “No matter what happens in the future, I will always have a special bond with Real Madrid. This is my life’s club.”
“I want the club to renew my contract because I deserve it and not because of my history,” the Croatian insisted, urging that Madrid give him a new contract because he deserves it. The midfielder is most likely to play in Tuesday’s match for Madrid (February 21). In the first leg of their last-16 UEFA Champions League match, they take on Liverpool.
Modric, a midfielder for Real Madrid, and Croatia were unable to capture the FIFA World Cup at the conclusion of the previous year. Argentina defeated Vatreni 3-0 in the semifinals, ending their chances of an unexpected victory. From the penalty spot, Lionel Messi opened the scoring before Julian Alvarez added a brace.
To the delight of fans everywhere, Messi won his first FIFA World Cup. The seasoned midfielder for Los Blancos wants to see the PSG forward win the competition. “I hope Lionel Messi wins this World Cup, he’s the best player in history and he deserves it,” he said to Ole following the defeat to La Abiceleste.
During his seven appearances during the tournament in Qatar, Messi scored seven goals and contributed three assists. Many people believe the Argentine’s declaration that the World Cup has put an end to the argument between himself and legendary Real Madrid player Cristiano Ronaldo.
