There's no doubt, Luka Modric, is an absolute legend of Real Madrid and of soccer, however, the Croatian midfielder is not at his best with Real Madrid. Not because he is at a low level, but because Carlo Ancelotti hardly counts on him and the Croatian spends more time on the bench than on the pitch.

And in Arabia they know this. The Government of Saudi Arabia is once again preparing a mega offer that they consider would be unassailable for a player who is already 38 years old, has little sporting life ahead of him and money that he would never earn playing anywhere else in the world. According to OkDiario, in the next few hours they will send you a salary proposal again that they hope will end the uncertainty.

200 million euros for two years of contract; 100 million euros per season, the same salary that Neymar receives. After having tried in the summer with similar figures, in Arabia they believe that now he could give in: Modric is not playing and the few years that remain on his contract, if he does not leave Madrid, it seems that he will spend them sitting in a bench of substitutes while Jude Bellingham and other young people are the true handle of the team led by Carlo Ancelotti.

After having signed the contract renewal for one more season, Luka Modric is the one who must now take the step: ask for the letter of freedom from Madrid and leave if he really considers that the proposal is “irrejectable.” The merengue player has the ball like so many times in his career, only he knows what he will decide.

Ancelotti's unfulfilled promise from which there is no going back

The short circuit between the player and the coach is not something new. They have even publicly referred to the situation that the Croatian almost never plays. “You always have to stay outside,” Ancelotti said. The problem for Modric is that lately the one who is always left out is him. With the mood not very positive, will he wait much longer to leave Madrid?
