Luka Modrić, the legendary Croatian midfielder, has officially signed a one-year contract with Italian giants AC Milan at the age of 39! After 13 years and 28 trophies with Real Madrid, Modrić is starting a new chapter in his career in Milan, wearing the number 14 jersey, previously worn by Dario Šimić. His annual salary will be around €3.5 million, significantly less than at Real Madrid, but money was never his main motivation. Modrić joined Milan as a free agent after failing to extend his contract with Real. Milan finished last season in a disappointing 8th place in Serie A, and Modrić’s arrival is part of a major restructuring under new coach Massimiliano Allegri. After signing, Modrić returned to Croatia for a well-deserved rest before joining Milan’s preseason in August. His calmness, experience, and talent bring new hope to Milan fans eager for a return to the top of Italian and European football. Can Modrić shine again and bring trophies? Or is this just another attempt to prolong his career? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let the debate begin!
