According to Defensa Central, the 40-year-old Croatian has agreed to return to Madrid but in an entirely new role. Perez offered Modric a position within the club’s structure, and Luka is ready to accept by hanging up his boots.

Modric plans to take a year off after the season ends, dedicating more time to his family before returning to Real no earlier than 2027. He could become a coach at the club’s academy, working with the youth teams, or take on the prestigious position of Real’s ambassador.
