Luka Modric – 38-year-old Croatian midfielder, signed a one-year contract extension with Real Madrid, continuing his incredible journey at the Royal Spanish Club.

Real Madrid has just announced good news to fans: Luka Modric will continue to play for Los Blancos until the end of the 2024-25 season. The 38-year-old Croatian midfielder signed a contract extension for another year, affirming his important role in coach Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.

Modric joined Real Madrid from Tottenham in 2012 and has become one of the greatest players in the club’s history. In 12 years playing for the Royal team, he won 26 titles, including 6 Champions League championships and 4 La Liga titles. This impressive achievement has contributed to Real Madrid becoming one of the most successful teams in world football history.

Modric’s career at Real Madrid is not only marked by the number of titles but also by his sophisticated playing style and great influence on the field. He appeared 534 times for Los Blancos, scoring 39 goals and creating countless important assists. In 2018, Modric reached the pinnacle of his career when he won the Golden Ball award, breaking the monopoly of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Real Madrid’s homepage announced that it has extended Modric’s contract until June 2025.

Even though he is 38 years old, Modric still shows his value in the Real Madrid squad. Last season, he played 32 matches in LaLiga, including 18 starting matches. Coach Carlo Ancelotti appreciated not only Modric’s talent but also his human qualities: “In addition to being a top player, one of the best players in the world, he is also great as a a more wonderful person.”

Modric’s decision to stay at Real Madrid was signaled earlier during the club’s Champions League victory celebrations. He told the crowd at the Bernabéu: “Thank you for your support throughout the past year. See you next season!”

Luka Modric is one of the remaining players from the Galacticos 2.0 squad.

Modric’s contract extension takes place in the context that Real Madrid is making major changes in personnel. Just a day earlier, the club unveiled star Kylian Mbappe at the Bernabeu Stadium in a glittering ceremony. Retaining Modric shows that Real Madrid is trying to maintain a balance between experience and youth in the squad.

With this contract extension, Modric will have the opportunity to continue writing history with Real Madrid. He is not only an excellent player on the field but also an example of professionalism and loyalty to the club. Real Madrid fans will certainly be excited to witness magical performances from Croatia’s “witch” legs next season.
