Modric to Milan, here we are: the Croatian champion one step away from the Rossoneri

The summer signing for Milan is about to arrive directly from the heart of Real Madrid. Luka Modric is ever closer to wearing the Rossoneri shirt, in what would be one of the most fascinating and surprising operations in the European market.

After twelve unforgettable seasons with Los Blancos, the Croatian midfielder is preparing to turn the page and embrace the Italian challenge, with a contract that would tie him to Milan for one year, with an option for a second season. The agreement is now in the details, the result of a well-constructed negotiation conducted under the radar in recent weeks.

Decisive, in particular, was the work of Igli Tare, former Lazio manager, who personally went to the Croatian national team's retreat to convince Modric to accept the Rossoneri's proposal. A strategic intervention that had the desired effect, snatching the yes from the player, who would see Milan as the perfect opportunity for one last great challenge in Europe.

Modric to Milan, announcement coming soon

The contract with Real Madrid will officially expire after the Club World Cup and, at that point, the Croatian will be free to begin his new chapter. At 39, Modric wants to end his career where football still has a soul and a true passion, in a league that in recent years has rediscovered a taste for timeless talent.

Milan, for its part, dreams of a leader in the middle of the field, a master of technique and vision, capable of leading a young and ambitious team. If everything goes as planned, the announcement could arrive as early as the end of the month. And then, San Siro will be able to start imagining that elegant and unmistakable touch with a new shirt on: that of Milan.
