OFFICIAL: Modric announces he will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season

At the age of 39, Luka Modrić announced on social media today that he will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season, bringing an end to his 13 - year career in the white jersey.

 

Modrić:

Dear Real Madrid fans, This moment has finally arrived. It's a moment I've always been reluctant to face, but that's football. Everything in life has a beginning and an end... This Saturday, I will take my final bow at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.  In 2012, I came with the dream of wearing the jersey of the world's best team and the ambition to achieve great things, yet I could never have imagined the glory that would follow. The years wearing the Real Madrid jersey have completely transformed my playing career and life path. I'm extremely proud to have been a part of the most successful era of this club, which has the best history. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the club, especially President Florentino Pérez, my teammates, the coaching staff, and all those who have supported me over the years.

Over the years, we've shared countless miraculous moments — those seemingly impossible comebacks, the glory of finals, the jubilation of celebrations, and the magical nights at the Bernabéu... We've won it all, and I've been blessed with unparalleled happiness. Truly, immeasurable happiness. But more precious than trophies and victories is the love you've shown me. I can't put into words the special bond I share with you, and the support, respect, and affection you've given me. Every standing ovation, every warm - hearted gesture of friendship will stay in my heart forever. I leave now with a full heart — brimming with pride, gratitude, and memories that will never fade. Even if I never step onto this pitch in this jersey again after the Club World Cup, I will always be a true Madridista. We will meet again. Real Madrid will always be my home. That will never change. Hala Madrid, nothing else matters.

Luka Modrić
