The Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport this morning highlighted a curious statistic about Luka Modric. Despite playing as a holding midfielder in front of the defense, an area of the pitch full of tackles and challenges, the Croatian star has not committed a single foul in the first six Serie A matches.
Yesterday was also a special day for the boys and girls of Milan’s youth academy. The young Rossoneri talents welcomed Luka Modric, who visited the “Puma House of Football,” home of Milan’s youth teams.
The ex Real Madrid man greeted and took photos with the youngsters, who looked at him with admiration, especially the youngest ones. Modric also took time to speak with Vincenzo Vergine, the head of Milan’s youth sector, as pointed out by Milan News.
