Luka Modric , a 41-year-old midfielder for AC Milan, is once again in the spotlight of news at Real Madrid as he has hinted at the possibility of working for the "Merengues" once his career as a footballer ends. The Croatian expressed his desire after Croatia's defeat against Spain, emphasizing that any return would also depend on whether the white club is interested.

Currently, there are no negotiations for his incorporation into the Madrid structure. Modric is under contract with Milan until June 30, 2027, and his priority remains focused on his player career before deciding on his next professional step.

Luka Modric Wants to Return to Real Madrid with a Specific Role

The relationship between Luka Modric and Real Madrid did not end with his departure in 2025. The midfielder once again pointed to the white club as the one that has had the greatest impact on his career and admitted that he would like to return after retiring.

However, his intention does not only involve holding a position due to his history. Modric stated in September that if he were to return, he would do so with specific responsibilities, aiming to contribute directly to the club.

He referred to an idea implemented by José Mourinho since his return to the bench: working for Real Madrid and not just having a position within its structure.

His sports bond with the club explains this possibility. Modric played 597 matches during his 13 seasons in Madrid, scored 43 goals, and won 28 titles, including six Champions League trophies and four league titles.

AC Milan Keeps Modric Until June 2027

Before considering a return to Spain, Modric remains focused on AC Milan. The Italian club extended his contract for another season this summer, and his contract now ends on June 30, 2027.

In his first campaign in Italy, he played 37 matches and scored two goals, leading Milan to extend his stay. Modric turned 41 on September 9, but has not yet publicly set a definitive retirement date.

The midfielder also continues his international activity with Croatia. He participated in the 1-2 defeat against Spain in Split in the Nations League and, after the match, reiterated that he still has the motivation to keep playing.

The Decision Will Also Depend on Real Madrid

Therefore, Luka Modric's return is not solely dependent on his will. The player himself acknowledges that it will be necessary to understand Real Madrid's plans and see if there is a position within their structure that aligns with his goals once he finishes playing.

Currently, there are no known discussions about a specific role or a date to begin this possible return. The next step will come when Modric decides to retire, something unlikely to happen before his current contract with Milan ends in June 2027.

Until then, Luka Modric will continue playing in Italy and evaluate his future on a season-by-season basis. When he does retire, Real Madrid will have to decide whether to turn the Croatian's publicly expressed desire into a concrete proposal to bring him into the club's structure.
