The Merengues’ victory at Bala\u00eddos is a significant highlight for the elite at Santiago Bernab\u00e9u, and the president no longer rules anything out.<\/p>\n
The match at Bala\u00eddos against Celta (1-2) may have disrupted some of the future plans of the Whites, who are already planning for next season at a turbulent pace, especially after the recent serious injury to Dani Carvajal.
\nThe situation of David Alaba is also not very encouraging; his injury to the left knee is difficult to heal, as the cartilage has been affected, causing significant swelling and leading to painful bone friction.<\/p>\n
Above all, the team is clearly facing difficulties in midfield at the start of the season. The departure of Toni Kroos, who decided to retire at the end of last season, is affecting Carlo Ancelotti’s team more than previously thought.
\nIt is worth noting that many suggested the German would stay while Luka Modric would leave. However, contrary to all expectations, the opposite happened, and it was the Croat who ended up renewing for another year.<\/p>\n
According to information from the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Modric, who had a completely secondary role last year, is beginning to play an increasingly important role for Ancelotti. He has already started five times in La Liga and has come on as a substitute in the remaining matches.<\/p>\n
The Madrid captain played more than twenty minutes against Celta and had time to provide a wonderful assist for Vinicius to score the winning goal for the Merengues. In addition, Luka had just played two matches with Croatia, where he is a leader and a complete reference for future generations.<\/p>\n
The idea of Madrid keeping Modric for another year is not something that seems unreasonable, despite the player’s age; he has just turned 39 and has already surpassed Puskas as the oldest player to play for Madrid.
\nThe legendary Hungarian winger set the record at 39 years and 38 days in May 1966, and Modric, who turned 39 last month, played Saturday’s match at 39 years and 40 days.<\/p>\n
His brilliant and clearly decisive performance in Vigo only confirms that the player still has a place in this team, and Florentino P\u00e9rez today does not rule out anything regarding the player’s future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
