For most of this season, Luka Modric has played a bit-part role at Real Madrid. Carlo Ancelotti has opted to utilise the likes of Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga much more frequently than the Croatian, who has often been forced to take his place on the bench.
As a result, this has led to increased reports that Modric will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season when his contract expires, rather than signing another one-year extension. The 38-year-old wants to keep playing consistent football, which is certainly not going to be the same at Los Blancos, as things stand.
However, it appears that Modric has had something of a change of heart, as El Chiringuito (via Sport) have reported that he is willing to stay for another season, despite his lack of prominence. His intention is to retire in the Spanish capital, which could end up being the case in 2025.
The report notes that Real Madrid have been caught off guard by Modric’s turnaround, although surely they won’t welcome a legend of the game staying for one more year, given the valuable experience that he would bring.

Madrid should allow Modric leave so as to open way for talented kids at our Academy.... Players like Mario Martin is due for promotion to the senior team, ss well as Nico Paz. The continuity of Modric & Ceballis would certainly block their chances...However, with Ceballos, there's the optimism that he'll leave.... I think Modric should leave !
its da coach look at xabi alonsò boniface injury for 3 month. but still they got beat. a ncelotti modric got injury a good game he wont to play he will let him play insteant u got braim juselu arda everyone bench and at 89 min u want to pull eabrow

I like Modric quite a lot, but I think he' not competent enough for la liga anymore. I wanna see him in the MLS
Every time he steps in the pitch the whole game changes. He is more than capable of the top of european football at 39.

Caught off guard is right becuase Mbappe was already promised the #10 for next season.

Modric has had some great performances this season, he might not be guaranteed game time, but he is a top quality player to have as back up and also a leader in the dressing room. 1 more sounds good to me 😌

Carlo Ancelotti u need to give Luka chance to play, despite his old age but he has a good advantage on the pitch because of his experience. when ever he come on the pitch doing second half he can play a better impact u can see the whole game changing formation.

Luka Modric is one of the best midfielder on the ball and off the ball.
