Luka Modric angry because Ancelotti had assured him his role wouldn't change

Luka Modric is angry with Carlo Ancelotti because he assured him that his role would not change

The Croatian footballer has assumed another role this season after the lack of confidence of the Italian coach: he played against Napoli after two games without minutes

The Croatian has gone on to have a very different role to the one he had been having at Real Madrid in recent years. His presence has given many joys to all the fans of Real Madrid, who with him on the field has lifted up to five times the Champions League. His alliance and understanding with Toni Kroos and Casemiro made them become the best midfield in the recent history of Real Madrid. However, the situation has completely changed. The player has come to have a totally secondary role. Modric is "angry" as Carlo Ancelotti himself said in the press conference after Real Madrid's victory in Naples, but Manu Carreño explains exactly why.

Luka Modric was back on the green after two games in which he did not even warm up. The Madrid derby first and the match in Montilivi against Girona, were two proofs that Carletto had decided that Modric's role was going to be very different from in recent years. Settled on the bench and without the opportunity to dress short, he has been the first to see how his prominence has completely diminished. Therefore, the news that advances the director of El Larguero Manu Carreño is the real photograph of how the dressing room of the white team is and more specifically how is the relationship between the Italian coach and Modric.

"Modric is angry, not because he does not play, but because Ancelotti told him he was going to play more," says Manu Carreño who relates that both spoke up to two times to address the lack of minutes of the Croatian footballer. "With the offer from Saudi Arabia, Ancelotti told him that his role was going to be practically the same. In the break of selections he speaks again and transmits the same, but the situation has not changed, "he says.

The reaction of the Real Madrid player has not been long in coming and what Ancelotti said at a press conference expresses it perfectly and that is that the Croatian is angry. "Modric is angry, not only for not playing as expected but for not playing what Ancelotti had told him he was going to play. It feels like it feels," says the presenter of 'El Larguero', who warns about the upcoming winter market and the possible consequences if the situation does not change. "Keep an eye on the month of January to see how his role goes. His role has changed, before the break and after, and that's what has Modric in the dark. There is still a lot of season left," he concluded.
