AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri confirms Luka Modric will join the club from Real Madrid after the Club World Cup.
AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has confirmed that Croatia captain Luka Modric will join the Italian club from Real Madrid after the Club World Cup.
The 39-year-old midfielder has been linked with a move to Italy since early June, after announcing he would leave Real Madrid at the end of his contract. Modric is expected to arrive at Milan in August, ahead of the new season.
Allegri described Modric as an “extraordinary and important player,” highlighting his exceptional talent and experience. The Croatian midfielder has had a storied career, playing for top clubs like Tottenham and Real Madrid, where he joined in 2012. Modric’s decision to leave Madrid has sparked interest from several clubs, but Allegri’s confirmation suggests Milan are set to secure his signature.
Modric’s potential impact on Milan’s squad cannot be overstated. His creativity, vision, and technical ability would be a significant boost to the team.
Allegri’s return to Milan after a successful first spell between 2010 and 2014 has generated excitement among fans, and the signing of Modric would be a major coup for the club.
Milan’s first game of the new season is in the Italian Cup on August 17. With Modric expected to join in August, he may not be available for the opening game. However, his arrival would give Allegri a valuable option in midfield, and fans can look forward to seeing him in action soon.
