After the appearance of Jude Bellingham, currently, Luka Modric is no longer an untouchable name in the Real Madrid squad. There, Jude Bellingham continuously became a hero with great performances. Since the beginning of the season, he has only started 4 times in all competitions. Modric respects coach Ancelotti's decision. At the age of 38, Modric affirmed that he is still healthy enough to play regularly. The contract between Modric and Real Madrid will expire next summer. With his playing time decreasing, whether Real Madrid management will ask him to extend his short-term contract is still to be determined. But if the situation does not change, he should leave the Bernabeu this January.
Modrid is not become the priority of real madrid but this is not something that needs to regret. Real madrid needs also to do regeneration for its club and i think that as a senior players and he is aware about that. In my speculation if modric may also leave from the club someday.
Real madrid needs to put whole of its focus to rebuild the club again. Im thinking about that if there will be no a problem once he will leave from this club. Modric is good but he can't deny if he is aged.
There's no point to keep the old player in the club. Real madrid can replace him with a good midfielder in the club, madrid has so many great midfielders in the club. It seems like that if everything will be running fine without him in the club.
Real madrid must be moving on and there's no reason to regret it once he will not a part of the club anymore. Modric needs to find the future of his career.
He is old enough to continue playing in the football.
