The reason Real Madrid doubts Modric's contract renewal despite Xabi Alonso

The Croatian player has shown over the last few years that he has everything necessary to go down in history as a legend. Not only of Real Madrid itself, which he is, but of soccer at a general level. Therefore, his continuity is a right he has to decide if it is what he desires.

However, for Real Madrid, which has probably seen its worst version in recent years, it is not an easy decision. The Croatian could end up leaving the white team by decision of the management for one reason: Arda Güler. The young Turk has a surprising projection and that doesn't take anyone by surprise, therefore, they want to push him to be top soon.

The arrival of a coach like Xabi Alonso, who has been key to the development of young players like Wirtz at Leverkusen, is important. However, for this to happen, they must leave a spot in the squad, where Modric could see his exit.

Modric on the way out

The Croatian is an absolute legend of the club and there is no way to doubt that, but his time, for many, has concluded. His continuity, more than a sign of respect for the legend, will be a punishment for his highly respected and beloved image.

With Kroos, right now, things were different, he left a team as a champion and with a clean image of his departure. With Modric, things are different, as age has taken its toll and it is evident on the field.

Xabi Alonso has very clear plans with the most experienced players in the squad, but also with the promises like Güler. Therefore, the spot that Modric could leave to give it to Güler seems to be the team's priority.

One step away from knowing his fate

It is said that his departure from the white club could occur after the FIFA Club World Cup this summer. Therefore, it seems that it is only a matter of time for the farewell of this legend of the best team in the history of soccer.
