Real Madrid<\/a>‘s plans for the future very much involve Croatian midfielder Luka Modric<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fabrizio Romano<\/a> reports that Los Blancos have ‘positive feelings’ in their efforts to extend the 35-year-old’s stay.<\/p>\n

Luka Modric in Positive Talks to Extend Real Madrid Stay<\/h2>\n

Modric Remains Part of Real Madrid’s Plans<\/h3>\n

The former Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> midfielder attracted the attention of global powerhouse Real Madrid back in 2012 and has been a midfield mainstay for the La Liga<\/a> giants ever since.<\/p>\n

Modric’s efforts in the Premier League<\/a> were never going to go unnoticed and he quickly transformed into being one of the first names on the teamsheet among the very best players in world football.<\/p>\n

Over eight years on, Modric has made Santiago Bernabeu his home. The Croatian has made 363 appearances<\/a> and held countless honours.<\/p>\n

The 2018 World Cup finalist is showing no signs of tiring, despite having turned 35 in September.<\/p>\n

Fabrizio Romano’s report claims there are ‘positive feelings’ surrounding an extension for Modric, who remains a part of Real Madrid’s plans for the future. Whilst that is the case, he does stress that no agreement has been signed just yet.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid Looking to Extend and Continued Regular Action for Modric<\/h3>\n

In 2020\/21, Modric has started a large portion<\/a> of Real Madrid’s games – both in La Liga and the Champions League<\/a>. He continues to add to his goalscoring tally – now at 25<\/a> for the club – having scored one<\/a> of his three goals this campaign against Barcelona<\/a> in El Clasico.<\/p>\n

Modric remains very much involved on international duty with Croatia too. He is clearly maintaining a high level and that is of course why Real are pushing to extend his stay.<\/p>\n

Sergio Ramos Situation Unresolved<\/h3>\n

Club captain Sergio Ramos<\/a> remains yet to tie down his future at the Bernabeu and Fabrizio Romano adds that the situation is still ongoing.<\/p>\n

Ramos, 34, like Modric, is showing little signs of decline and would be an important renewal for Zinedine Zidane’s side.<\/p>\n
