Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Luka Modrić has signed a new contract with the club, and that he will play more next season.

Modrić, who is 37 years old, has been a key player for Real Madrid for over a decade, winning numerous trophies with the club, including five Champions League titles. However, his status at the club has changed somewhat in recent seasons, due to his age and the arrival of new midfielders such as Jude Bellingham.

Despite this, Ancelotti has made it clear that Modrić will still play a significant role in the team next season.

“We were all in agreement for his renewal,” Ancelotti said in a press conference. “It’s true that he has not played a lot, his status has changed a bit but now he will play more — and he has always been important.”

Ancelotti’s comments are a positive sign for Modrić and Real Madrid fans. It suggests that the club is still committed to Modrić, and that he will continue to be an important player for the team next season.

Modrić is one of the most decorated players in Real Madrid history, and he is still one of the best midfielders in the world. His experience and quality will be invaluable for Real Madrid in the 2023-24 season.
