Real Madric coach, Ancelotti, seems to be philosophical in his assessment of midfielder Luka Modric in the team and elsewhere.
The reliable midfielder did not start Real Madrid’s first two league games, leading to speculation that the Croatian is unhappy with the situation, something which Ancelotti denied.
“Luka has already defined his future. He has no problem, he will contribute,” Ancelotti said on Thursday.
The manager’s other sentences are no less proverbial:
“It’s a special situation for everybody, for him it’s strange not to play from the first minute but he will contribute as always.”
Ancelotti also said new signing Kepa Arrizabalaga, who joined on loan from Chelsea, will make his debut in goal in Real’s first home league game of the season.
Andriy Lunin was the keeper in the opening two wins of the campaign after Thibaut Courtois underwent surgery on a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee.
