| Luka Modric of Real Madrid walks past the trophy at the end of the UEFA Champions League final match between Liverpool FC and Real Madrid at Stade de France on May 28, 2022 in Paris, France. |
Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric still
has fuel left in the tank. He’s 36 years old, will turn 37 next September yet
he won the fifth Champions League title
of his career last night. Not only he won it, he also featured in the starting
lineup against a very strong and physical Liverpool midfield.
“There are no words to describe what I’m feeling,
it’s something unbelievable. This team, this club, is undoubtedly the best
thing in football history. We always say this and we always have to repeat it,
because there’s nothing bigger than Real Madrid,” said the midfielder when
talking to Spanish TV Movistar+.
Modric is expected to sign his contract extension
with Real Madrid in the next few days, as both parts involved wanted to wait
until the end of the season. The Croatian player might not have the same
consistency he had when he was at his peak, but he’s still a crucial midfielder
for Real Madrid and that’s why it’s very easy to extend his deal.
