Creative environment, the Croatian was the Merengue metronome for all these years and played a preponderant role in the good results accumulated by his team over the years. But Real Madrid has chosen to renew its workforce and indicated the exit door to it. Luka Modric will bounce back to AC Milan.
At almost forty years old (he will have them on September 9), the 2018 Ballon d'Or certainly no longer has his twenty -year -old legs. But his Vista and his experience should certainly benefit the Rossoneri. New Milan coach, Massimiliano Allegri has in any case shown himself very enthusiastic on the subject. Present Monday in front of journalists for his first press conference, the tactician also anticipated the official announcement of the arrival of Modric.
“We are waiting for it to happen. He is at the Club World Cup and will join us in August ”. Remarks relayed by the team, which show how long the wait seems long for the Milanese staff. AC Milan will be the sixth club of Luka Modric's career. After wearing the Dinamo Zagreb jersey, he then played for the HSK Zrinjski Mostar and the NK Inter Zapresic. Then he left for England with Tottenham Spurs before spinning in Madrid.
Luka Modric expected at AC Milan
A few years after signing Olivier Giroud, AC Milan once again tried with a veteran. Massimiliano Allegri hopes to be able to rely on the immense experience of Luka Modric. A capital contribution for the project of an AC Milan wishing to revive completely after a season not far from catastrophic.
Eighth of Serie A, the Rossonero club will not compete in any European Cup this season. No worse for a Luka Modric who will not be overhanged as he could be this year on the side of Real Madrid. It remains to wait for the formalization of the arrival of the Croatian who should be welcomed as a king by the Milanese tifosi.
