Luka Modric has renewed his contract with Real Madrid until June 2023, after winning his fifth Champions League title with them. The Croatian had an agreement for months with the board, and has now signed his contract for one more year.

The official announcement confirming Modric’s extension will be made in the coming days. Everything has been agreed for the renewal, and it was never in doubt that the player would continue with Los Blancos.

The midfielder received two proposals for a new experience, but only had his heart set on Real Madrid. Despite being 36 years old, the 2018 Ballon d’Or award winner continues to perform at the topmost level. Even physically, he shows no signs of slowing down, and is performing at an unbelievable level.

His contributions have been extremely valuable this season, as it was his personal brilliance that got Madrid past Chelsea in the quarter finals.

Now that Luka Modric will be staying with the 14-time Champions League winners, it is almost inevitable that he will be picked to lead Croatia in the World Cup later this year. But, with that in mind, this could also be his last contract renewal.

The midfielder helped his national team reach the finals of the World Cup in 2018, only to lose to France. And this year, it will be his final chance to make it all the way with them.
