Real Madrid’s veteran midfielder Luka Modric announced on Thursday that he will leave the club following the upcoming Club World Cup this summer.
“Every journey has a beginning and an end… This Saturday will be my final match at the Santiago Bernabéu,” the 39-year-old wrote on Instagram, as his contract with the Spanish club nears its conclusion.
“I leave with my heart full—grateful, proud, and carrying countless unforgettable memories,” he said.
“Though I won’t wear the Real Madrid jersey on the field after the Club World Cup, I will remain a Madridista for life.”
