Midfielder Modrić, of course, is fresh off taking to the pitch in the colours of Real Madrid for the very last time.

En route to a 4-0 drubbing at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup on Wednesday night, the Croatian was introduced off the bench during the 2nd-half.

With Real’s campaign at the stateside tournament having now officially come to an end, though, so too has Modrić’s time on the books of Los Blancos.

Xabi Alonso’s squad touched back down in Madrid early on Friday morning, before heading their separate ways ahead of a well-earned break from competitive duties.

And it was during as much that Modrić, as alluded to above, afforded a special gift to Arda Güler.

As showcased in the footage below, after departing Real Madrid’s team bus, the 39-year-old searched for and found one of his own Blancos jerseys.

From here, Modrić handed the shirt to Güler, before the pair came together for a warm embrace:
