Real Madrid star Luka Modric wants to extend his contract in the club until next season and beyond his 40th birthday.

The International of Croatia has already broken New Ground as the oldest performances of the club in 2024 and he wants more records in 2025.
Despite his reduced playing time in recent months, Modric is crucial as the club captain of Ancelotti, and the 39-year-old manages the respect of every member of the Star Studded Squad.
Ancelotti spent him after the victory of Girona and called him a 'gift to football' and indicates that he must be allowed to decide when he wants to leave Real Madrid.
According to Relo reports, Modric has already made a decision to sign a renewal, rather than he has done in previous seasons.
Modric has consistently included the rolling range of an extension of 12 months according to Real Madrid's policy on contracts for players of 30 years.
He is open to another wages, to continue at his current location and to stay on the way to lead Croatia on the FIFA World Cup 2026.
The decision will now rest at Florentino Perez, who wants to keep Modric, but the situation must suit all parties.
No decision is expected to at least the last weeks of the season that follows on recent patterns for Modric.
A start against Girona is moving him to an incredible 574 club performances in Real Madrid since his arrival from Tottenham in 2012 and 10th on their list of all time and he can break the 600-game Mark if he extends.
