One of the most shocking pieces of news from Real Madrid during the season was Luka Modrić's farewell. The Croatian, who wanted to renew for one more season with Real Madrid, ultimately decided to end his time with the team. This was undoubtedly a hard blow for all Madridists, who prepared Bernabéu to say goodbye to their legend.

With the Club World Cup being his last tournament with Real Madrid, Modrić has received many tributes. One of the most notable is the one Adidas, Real Madrid's sponsor, has made with a recent jersey. Always surprising with their unique and innovative designs, Adidas didn't disappoint with the jersey honoring Modrić.

While the design doesn't change on the front, the tribute is located right on Modrić's number 10 on the back. This number, instead of being a completely dark digit, features images of Luka Modrić's best moments at Real Madrid.

The gesture from Adidas

Arriving at Real Madrid in 2012, Luka Modrić led the team to several successes. After playing a total of 13 seasons with Real Madrid, Modrić said goodbye to the club as the most decorated player in its entire history. By winning several of the world's most important titles, Modrić made sure to leave an indelible legacy at the team.

This has been proven with the jersey Adidas made to honor Luka Modrić's time at Real Madrid. The design of his number, with the images in black and white, gives it a unique touch that adds a certain mystique to Modrić's legacy.

While they could've designed a simple patch or a phrase for the jersey, Adidas decided to make a kit worthy of Modrić. By honoring everything Modrić achieved with Real Madrid, this kit is a great way to say goodbye to a great legend.

The importance of Modrić

This gesture from Adidas has made clear the importance Modrić had, has, and will always have at Real Madrid. While this jersey is a great way to honor Modrić, winning the Club World Cup would be even better to give the Croatian a truly memorable farewell.
