Real Madrid is actively pursuing a return for midfield legend Luka Modric, as reported by Marca. The Croatian international departed the Santiago Bernabéu in May 2025 after an illustrious 13-year stint, subsequently signing a short-term contract with AC Milan. Now at 40 years old, Modric is being courted by Madrid just over a year after his emotional farewell.
Club President Florentino Pérez has made it clear that Modric will have the freedom to shape his own role upon return. While the exact capacity remains uncertain, insiders suggest he may assume duties as sporting director or executive consultant, bringing his vast experience back to the Spanish capital.
