Real Madrid’s Croatian midfielder Luka Modric said on Thursday he would leave the Spanish giants after the Club World Cup this summer.
“Everything in life has a start and an end… on Saturday I will play my last match at the Santiago Bernabeu,” said Modric, 39, in a post on Instagram, as he reaches the end of his contract with Los Blancos.
“I’m leaving with a full heart, filled with pride, gratitude and unforgettable memories.
“And even though, after the Club World Cup, I’m no longer going to wear this shirt on the pitch, I will always be a Madrid fan.”
