Real Madrid have eyed a signing to replace Luka Modric

Real Madrid have eyed a replacement for Luka Modric, according to Spanish media. The Croatian midfielder is out of contract in the winter and his place could be taken by Manchester United’s Donny van de Beek.

Luka Modric has been at Real Madrid since 2012. In that time, he has developed into one of the key players. However, the Croatian midfielder is out of contract in the spring and the club’s management is wondering how to handle the situation.

According to the latest information, Real Madrid want to extend Modric’s contract by one year. However, Modric is already 36 years old and it cannot be assumed that he will be valid for the team for a longer period of time.

Thus, the Spanish club is looking for a possible replacement for Modric. And it seems that Real have found a possible replacement in Manchester United. Real’s management are keen to bring in Donny van de Beek.

Van de Beek plays for Manchester United. But the 24-year-old can’t be completely satisfied with the workload.

And that’s exactly what the Spanish club wants to take advantage of. It is likely that Manchester will not have a problem with the release of their player, and Real hopes to buy his reinforcement under the price.

The Dutch footballer joined Manchester United last year. He is the reinforcement that coach Solskjær brought into the team, however, he is not getting many opportunities at the moment.
