Modric’s contract with Madrid expires at the end of the season, prompting him to make a decision regarding his future before the campaign concludes.
It appears increasingly likely that the 38-year-old will depart from the Spanish capital due to his dissatisfaction with the limited playing opportunities he has encountered.
In previous years, the seasoned midfielder has been afforded the option to extend his contract by one year during the summer transfer windows. However, indications suggest that this customary arrangement is poised to undergo alterations.
Ancelotti is receptive to retaining Modric’s seasoned presence within the squad for the upcoming season, provided there are clearer assurances regarding the midfielder’s role.
Offers from the Saudi Pro League and MLS have emerged, alongside the prospect of a return to Modric’s former club, Dinamo Zagreb. Ancelotti intends to weigh these options carefully.
Crucially, Ancelotti will not rush Modric into making a decision and will afford him the liberty to accept or reject the opportunity to prolong his career in Madrid.
