Luka Modric is undoubtedly a living legend of Real Madrid. At 39, the Croatian is still an essential piece, although it is already in the final stretch of his brilliant career. His intention is clear: he wants to continue for another year with white to retire in the club that has given him everything.
However, until now Real Madrid has not made any formal offer to renew its contract. Uncertainty reigns around his future.
The definitive announcement about Modric’s game
This Wednesday, Miguel Ángel Díaz, in Cope’s great game, confirmed that Modric will not continue at Real Madrid after the club’s World Cup. Despite his desire to continue playing, the club has not shown clear signs to renew the midfielder.

Unless there is an unexpected turn, on Saturday, in the match against Real Sociedad, Modric will say goodbye to fans in what will be his last official match with the Merengue shirt.
It is important to note that this decision has been taken by the club and not by the future coach, Xabi Alonso. For now, the former Croatian player has not received a formal proposal that could change his mind.
A career full of success and glory
Luka Modric closes a cycle after thirteen seasons at Real Madrid. During that time, he has won six champions leagues, four league titles, two cups of the king, and took home a ballon d’Or, an award that reflects its quality and legacy.
Although this season has not been a regular headline, Modric has played 56 games, scoring 4 goals and providing 9 assists. In total, it has 43 goals in 590 games that defend the white shirt. A trip that places it among the great idols in the history of the club.
More farewells in Santiago Bernabéu
Modric will not be the only one who says goodbye against true society. Carlo Ancelotti, Lucas Vázquez and Jesús Vallejo will also say goodbye. While Modric and Lucas Vázquez will play the Club World Cup, Jesús Vallejo will not even travel to the United States with the team.
Meanwhile, the club plans to issue an official statement on Friday to confirm the game of Ancelotti. The Italian coach will talk about his departure at the press conference before the last game, before traveling to Brazil as a coach.

The end of an era at Real Madrid
These movements mark a turning point for Real Madrid. Modric’s farewell represents the loss of a reference both inside and outside the field. His legacy is indelible, and his influence has marked a golden era for the club.
Although the future is uncertain, whites are preparing to rebuild the team without several historical figures. Meanwhile, fans will have a final emotional opportunity this Saturday to say goodbye to one of their greatest idols.
