Surprise. Modric receives an offer to return to Real Madrid

The former legend of “Real Madrid” Luka Modric has received an offer from the Royal Club to return to “Santiago Bernabeu” as an executive or administrative position in the sports department, the Italian newspaper “Tuttosport” reports.

The Milan talks are collapsing

The newspaper noted that negotiations to extend Modric’s contract with Milan collapsed after the Italian club failed to qualify for the Champions League.

The 40-year-old Croatian player demanded technical and athletic guarantees regarding the team’s project before signing a new contract.

Offers from Saudi Arabia and America

The Croatian playmaker received attractive financial offers from the Saudi League and the American League, but they did not impress him.

Modric, who has won every possible trophy at club level, seems to be looking for a different challenge in the next phase of his career.

Last stop

It looks like the 2026 World Cup will be Modric’s last tournament for Croatia, meaning the decision to retire could be very soon.

The question is: will he immediately accept the offer of Real Madrid management or will he prefer to wait a little before starting a new chapter?
