– Luka Modric and Real Madrid have reached a definitive agreement for the Croatian to continue at the club for another season.
– His standard of performances shown throughout the season has once again been the main reason for the former Ballon d’Or winner to extend his stay at Madrid.
– The desire of Real Madrid’s directors was clear and it was only a matter of time. Both parties wanted to extend the deal and a single conversation was enough for Modric to complete what will be his eleventh season at the club.

– The idea that the directors of Real Madrid have in mind is to find a place for the Croatian within the squad, but as long as he continues to show this level, his place will be on the pitch.
