One of the most representative players in Europe and especially in AS Roma for the eternal love he swore to him, Francesco Totti, in an interview with Marca newspaper, spoke about several passages in his career and also addressed the reality of modern football, where he highlighted one of the players who broke the mold and at 38 years old continues to teach in Europe, while Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are now in other minor leagues.

According to Francesco Totti, although he does not occupy the forward position, he has outstanding value to such an extent that he managed to win the Ballon d'Or, beating Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in his prime. The former Italian national team player praised Luka Modric, a Real Madrid midfielder who remains current despite his 38 years.

“For me he is one of the best players in the world because he has a vision of the game that very few in the world have, he always decides one or two seconds before the rest,” says Francesco Totti about the game of Luka Modric whom he valued his interest in staying in Europe despite the fact that he had offers in Saudi Arabia.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the same age as Luka Modric, 38 years old, but decided to look for Saudi Arabia, while Lionel Messi, 36 years old, migrated from France to the MLS where he will hope to stay for at least two more seasons. For his part, Luka Modric barely renewed his contract with Real Madrid, since his idea is to stay in Europe, demonstrating all the talent that Francesco Totti himself praised.
