The world-renowned Champions League final is about to start at Wembley Stadium, Real Madrid VS Dort. Before the final, authoritative transfer reporter Di Marzio confirmed on the official website that Modric has completed the contract renewal with Real Madrid, and it will be officially announced next week!

Real Madrid has six players in the squad whose contracts expire this summer: Kroos, Nacho, Modric, Vazquez, Joselu and Kepa.

Among them, Kepa Arrizabalaga's loan spell has expired and he is about to return to Chelsea; Kroos will say goodbye to football after playing the Champions League final and the European Cup; Captain Nacho is likely to leave, Vazquez will renew his contract and Joselu will also get a one-year contract (1.5 million euros buy-out and another one-year extension).

Will Luka Modric stay? Di Marzio gave a clear answer: Real Madrid has renewed his contract with the Magic Flute.

In mid-May, Real Madrid president Florentino met with Modric twice to discuss a contract extension. The 38-year-old told Galeries Lafayette that he wanted to stay at Real Madrid and was willing to accept a pay cut. Florentino recognized and admired Modric very much, and the two sides reached an intention to renew the contract.

Di Marzio has confirmed that Modric's contract extension with Real Madrid has been completed before arriving at Wembley, with the Ballon d'Or superstar signing a one-year contract extension (30 June 2025). After playing for one year, Modric is likely to hang up his boots.

Originally, it was expected that Modric would leave this summer, but in the past few months, the plot has reversed.

In the 2023-24 season, Modric is no longer the absolute main force, and young people such as Camavinga and Tchouameni are the focus of Real Madrid's training. In this regard, Modric was a little disappointed and dissatisfied at first, but gradually accepted his role and positioning. After Kroos announced his retirement, Real Madrid also needed the Magic Flute to bring young people. Nacho's departure this summer means that Modric will have another dream: to captain Real Madrid.

In 2012, Modric joined Real Madrid from Tottenham, and in a blink of an eye, the Magic Flute has been in the Galaxy for 12 years. The Magic Flute that went through the era of Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, Rafael Benitez, Zinedine Zidane, Julen Lopetegui and Solari won 25 trophies at Real Madrid, including five Champions League titles. If he wins one more Champions League, the Magic Flute will become the champion in the history of Real Madrid, and will also become the only five players in football history to win six Champions League titles.
