Midfielder Luka Modric is a big target of Inter Miami, Lionel Messi’s team, but this American Professional League (MLS) club just lost the opportunity when former teammate Ronaldo successfully convinced the player. Croatian.
Also wanting Modric’s signature, co-owner Beckham’s team tried to attract the Croatian midfielder, but recently, Cristiano Ronaldo convinced his former teammate to move from Real Madrid to Al Nassr.
Real Madrid is not discussing with Man United or former midfielder Raphael Varane about a possible transfer in January 2024, while the Red Devils also want to sell Antony to buy Japanese international Kubo.
According to sources from Todofichajes, Ronaldo will reunite with Modric, as the Portuguese star really wants the dynamic midfielder to move to Saudi Arabia’s football village. This Middle Eastern team plans to pay the Croatian player 30 million euros per season, a large number although still one-sixth less than striker Ronaldo.
Inter Miami, after bringing Messi to the team, added Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suarez. They are targeting Modric to elevate the team but will not succeed. At the same time, Todofichajes said Modric informed Real Madrid that he would not renew his contract. The midfielder is not satisfied with his playing time this season and wants to leave.
Luka Modric told MARCA: “No one feels happy when they can’t play. After a whole career as a starter, the feeling of sitting on the bench is especially strange to me. But the coach decided for his own reasons.” . I will not be depressed or reduce my efforts because of that. On the contrary, I will try to contribute even more.”
Midfielder Luka Modric has played 15 matches in La Liga this season and 5 times in the UEFA Champions League. Previously, the Croatian played 222 times with Cristiano Ronaldo and the two combined to score 16 goals.
In fact, Modric last year confirmed he wanted to stay at Real Madrid right after they expressed their desire to extend the contract. He admitted that he has a very good relationship with the Spanish team and does not think about leaving even though there is interest from rich teams in Saudi Arabia, under the influence of Cristiano Ronaldo helping him join the club. Al Nassr. He shared his opinion with Sportske Novosti: “Real Madrid wants to continue together in the spring, I have the same intention. We sat down and quickly agreed.
I always want to contribute to my beloved club, like that for the past 12 years, it cannot change. Our relationship is extraordinary. I am very happy and satisfied at Real Madrid, don’t think about other options. I don’t need to go anywhere, even though there are great offers. I just want to enjoy every moment in football and with Real Madrid.
I will work my best to become one of Real Madrid’s best players. I love the club and we are having a lot of matches, in big tournaments. There are many opportunities and spaces for me to express myself.”
However, everything changed from the beginning of the season when Carlo Ancelotti reduced Modric’s playing time. This Italian coach wants to reserve space for young players. This has caused Ronaldo’s longtime former teammate to have a reduced role and he needs a change.
