Luka Modric has confirmed that Real Madrid will be the final club of his career but insists he is not yet thinking about retirement. The 39-year-old Ballon d’Or winner told Telefoot: “I’m not thinking about it right now, but I’ve already said that I’d like to stop in Real Madrid because it would be a dream for me. But we must see what happens. “There’s a lot of the season left, and I have to focus on what’s left because there are many matches.
