Despite being 39 years old, the Croatian midfielder still shows his class and importance in the Los Blancos squad, under the leadership of coach Carlo Ancelotti.
Modric is considered by Real Madrid fans as an everlasting symbol. This season, he contributed 1 goal and 3 assists in La Liga. Modric's excellence was also shown in the 5-0 win over Deportiva Minera in the Spanish King's Cup, where he scored a goal.
