Speculation about Luka Modric future has entered a new phase. The midfielder has officially extended his contract with the Los Blancos squad.
In recent months, there have been many rumors regarding Modric’s transfer. This is because the midfielder’s contract expires in the summer of 2024.
Unsurprisingly, rumors have begun to swirl about the veteran’s future, with some suggesting he could potentially move to Saudi Arabia and the MLS this summer.
Today, Wednesday (17/7/2024), Luka Modric officially ended all speculation. He officially stayed at Real Madrid.
Short Term Contracts
Through their official website, Real Madrid announced Modric’s decision to stay at the Bernabeu.
The midfielder has been handed a short-term contract, tying him to the club until 2025.
In their report, Real Madrid did not mention whether there was a clause to extend the midfielder’s contract.
Become the New Captain
On the same occasion, Real Madrid also announced that Modric will be the captain of Los Blancos in the 2024/2025 season.
The Real Madrid captain’s armband is indeed unowned. Because Nacho, El Real’s captain last season has decided to resign.
That is why Modric, as the most senior player in the Real Madrid squad, is trusted to be the leader of Los Blancos next season.
Pre Season
The Real Madrid squad itself started their pre-season matches at the beginning of last week.
This pre-season has not yet been attended by all of Real Madrid’s players, because some of their players are still on leave.
