Real Madrid midfielder has interest from clubs in three leagues, prefers the MLS | OneFootball

Luka Modric is on his way out of Real Madrid and will leave the club after the FIFA Club World Cup next month, not out of his own choice but because the administration did not offer him a renewal.

He departs as the club’s most decorated player in history and could well add another title to his name before he leaves. Yet, it remains unknown as to what the player’s next step will be.

Modric is still a fine player and far from done in the game. It is thus unlikely that he will consider retirement, especially considering that he wishes to play the best FIFA World Cup, and will likely sign for a team in a lower-ranked league.

The options on his table

As relayed by FootMercato in a recent report, the Croatian star has several options on his table including from Brazil, the United States and the Middle East.

Al-Nassr and Al-Ettifaq from Saudi Arabia are interested in his signing for starters and offer the player great wages as is the norm in their league.

Concurrently, however, Inter Miami from the MLS are also pushing to sign Modric and the veteran also has offers from clubs in Brazil to join South American football.

As it stands, however, the player’s family prefer a move to the US over other options, although nothing can be ruled out yet. The MLS currently appears to be in pole position to land Modric.

Should the Real Madrid legend sign for Inter Miami, he will link up with some of the greats of Real Madrid’s arch-rivals Barcelona for the likes of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets are all at the US based club.

Needless to say, it will be fascinating to watch him team up with the players he warriored against for a decade.
