In a move that highlights both class and loyalty, Luka Modrić has decided not to undergo a medical with AC Milan just yet, despite reports confirming an agreement between the player and the Serie A giants.
Sources close to the deal reveal that the Croatian legend has opted to postpone all formalities until after Real Madrid’s Club World Cup campaign in the United States. This delay is said to be Modrić’s personal decision, made out of deep respect for the club he has called home for over a decade.
The 38-year-old midfielder, who has won every major title available during his time at Real Madrid—including five UEFA Champions League trophies—is expected to sign a one-year contract with Milan, with an option for a second season.
While his playing time under Carlo Ancelotti has been limited in recent months, Modrić remains a vital figure in the dressing room and continues to lead by example. His decision to hold off on the medical is widely viewed as a classy gesture, ensuring he gives his full commitment to Madrid’s final push in the tournament.
AC Milan, for their part, are reportedly understanding of Modrić’s stance and are prepared to finalize the deal as soon as the tournament concludes. They see his experience and leadership as crucial assets in bolstering their midfield depth and mentoring a younger generation of players.
This move, once completed, will mark the end of an incredible era at the Bernabéu—and the beginning of a new chapter in Modrić’s remarkable career.
