Real Madrid's legendary midfielder Luka Modric has made a major decision regarding his future at the club and will not go anywhere as the veteran has been linked to make a return to his boyhood club Dinamo Zagreb.

But now AS says Modric would prefer to stay and extend his contract with Real Madrid for next season. A big reason for Modric is that his sights are set on playing in the World Cup in the summer of 2026 and he wants to remain at the top level. Modric has scored 27 goals in 184 international matches for Croatia.

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti addressed a scolding that captain Luka Modric gave Vinicius Jr. during Wednesday's dramatic 3-2 Copa del Rey win over Leganes.
