A heavyweight player at Real Madrid is angry and that could have tragic consequences. This was stated by journalist Eduardo Inda, who said that negotiations to renew Luka Modric’s contract had stalled in recent weeks, and Florentino Perez decided to postpone it, at least, until after the Paris Saint-Germain match. Something the Croatian player and his agent did not like at all.
They do not understand why the president made this decision, when everything was fine, and only the signature remained. The Croatian wanted to extend his contract until 2023, the date when he plans to retire from professional football, and has always made it clear that his desire is to do so in the white shirt.
However, he has now got a chance to do it in another team, despite being one of the top stars in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.
This is precisely why it is difficult to understand the reasons why the Board of Directors halted renewal negotiations. Since he’s free after just over three months, they will have to hurry up to fix the issue, if they don’t want to lose the 2018 The Best and Ballon d’Or winner. His current situation has already caught the attention of several “big” teams, including Manchester City. , which he does not lose sight of.
Pep Guardiola would love to have Modric in his ranks and coach him before he hangs up his boots. A few months ago, he asked Sheikh Mansour to try to reconcile the positions of the former Dinamo Zagreb and Tottenham Hotspur player, but he immediately refused.
Now, however, he will be willing to negotiate, because he no longer sees the Spanish capital with such bad eyes, only after a decade has passed since his signing, which began in the summer of 2012.
The Premier League champion promises him a high salary and the opportunity to retire in New York City, the franchise he owns in Major League Soccer. He will play for two years at the Etihad Stadium, then he will go another two years to the United States.
Fede Valverde, in charge of everything
According to sources close to Florentino Perez, Fede Valverde may be one of the culprits that Modric’s negotiations have been paralyzed. And the Uruguayan threatened to leave, if he did not guarantee more participation in the matches, because he is very upset with the few minutes that he gets since the arrival of Ancelotti.
