Anyone who had doubts over the summer about Luka Modric and what he could offer Milan at the age of 40 was forced to change their mind very quickly. The Croatian champion has become an indispensable part of Max Allegri’s side, and in recent months the coach has often praised not only his immense quality and leadership, but also his humility and love for the game. Everyone at the Rossoneri club is crazy about him, so much so that they have already begun efforts to persuade him to stay at Milanello for another year.
Milan wants to renew Luka Modric's deal.
Tuttosport reported this morning that Modric signed a one year contract last summer, but the agreement also includes an extension option that only he can activate. For now, the former Real Madrid star has not yet decided what and where his future will be, although he has never hidden how happy he is in Milan. His decision will come in a few weeks, probably between the end of the league season and the start of the World Cup, which he will play with Croatia, and it will depend in particular on his motivation and physical condition.
The club’s directors, Max Allegri, and his teammates, aware of how important Luka has been in Milan’s resurgence, have already begun major efforts to convince the Croatian champion to remain for at least another season. Qualification for the next Champions League, a competition Modric knows extremely well since he has won it six times, could certainly be an important incentive for him to say yes to a contract renewal with the club, as relayed via Milan News.
