Luka Modric, the revered superstar of the Real Madrid squad, has found himself in an unfamiliar and challenging situation recently. With the emergence of young talents within the current Real Madrid team, the 38-year-old veteran has seen a decline in his playing opportunities, prompting the need for increased dedication and effort.
Modric’s absence from the starting lineup became evident as he missed three consecutive games at the onset of this season’s La Liga tournament. It wasn’t until the recent match against Getafe that he regained his place on the field, displaying a commendable performance.
Expressing his sentiments on this matter, Modric admitted “Nobody is happy when they don’t play games. When I look back at my career as a player, it’s really strange to be faced with something like this. But the decision will be made by the coach.”
“I want to be the kind of player who stays because I still have the quality to compete here. It’s totally unacceptable to stay in the team based on the good things that have been done in the past.”
“I kept my mind calm. I know very well that I have to put in a lot of work. I am confident that everything will fall into place before long. The boys in the team are really top players and so they are coming to Real Madrid. We have to help them and lead the team to stay at its level,” Modric said.
