As the season draws to a close, the topic of Modric’s future is also becoming increasingly important. As a reminder, he signed a one-year deal with an option for another season, but it will be the player’s decision alone on whether that option is used.
Based on what has been reported, Modric will decide based on his family’s needs and how he feels after the World Cup. What does seem obvious from his performances this season is that the 40-year-old is very much sharp enough still, and has the qualities to keep controlling games.
Modric’s future: Romano’s update
There was also talk of a dinner between the former Real Madrid man and Igli Tare, in which the future will surely have been discussed. Amid all of this, Fabrizio Romano provided an update on the Croatian’s current feelings, with his words relayed by MilanNews.
“Milan are already making an attempt to extend his contract. They’re leaving everything in Luka Modric’s hands: he’ll have to decide whether to continue,” he said.
“The club are courting him to stay together and let him play in the Champions League with Milan, which is something that tempts and intrigues the player.
“It’s not just Allegri and the management who are involved. His team-mates are also involved: but Modric will have to decide. Milan are giving it their all, waiting for a definitive response from Modric. The courtship is underway.”
