Legendary Real Madrid player and captain Luka Modric seems to be about to make a big career move. The Croatian midfielder has agreed to sign a free agency contract with Como of Italy for the upcoming season, according to Fichajes. He has already told club president Florentino Perez of his intentions; thus, this decision certainly signals the end of his storied Real Madrid career.
Modric is over 40 years old, and he still believes he can compete at a top level even though his current deal expires in 2025. Despite not seeing him in their plans for the future, Real Madrid has apparently stated that they are open to him participating in a different capacity after his playing days are done.

According to reports, Modric is hesitant to commit to Como until they guarantee their place in Serie A for the next campaign. His expected presence would represent the club’s lofty goals in addition to providing the team with elite experience.
