‘Modric will stay at Real Madrid’

Luka Modric has been rumoured with a move away from Real Madrid for quite some time now. Ever since the World Cup final in which the Croatia international took part, the media are moving him away from his current club. He was then rumoured to be moving to Inter Milan, and join Marcelo Brozovic, Sime Vrsaljko and Ivan Perisic, his compatriots, but nothing came of it.

After a very poor season following a Ballon d’Or win, Modric is being mentioned as a player that could be sold this summer, but former Real Madrid striker and former sporting director of the club, Predrag Mijatovic, thinks that will not happen.

“He will continue,” Mijatovic told El Larguero . “I have spoken with him. He is a committed chap and the problem won’t be Modric. It won’t be easy to recover what he had with the players that are going to arrive. The market has changed. All of the club know they need to sign and the prices increase. He’s a professional and he is happy. He suffers like everyone.”
