Modrić transferred to Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur back in 2012 and has gone on to enjoy 13 great years at the biggest club in the world. With 590 (and counting) appearances, a Ballon d’Or and countless trophies to his name, the Croatian has more then cemented his legacy as one of the club’s greatest players of all time.

Real Madrid have identified Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister as their long-term successor to Luka Modric- who is expected to make his final appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu on May 24 against Real Sociedad.
