He passes his medical, Modric reveals the date and he'll sign with his new club

Real Madrid has all their attention focused on the upcoming Club World Cup, a tournament they aspire to win. While players like Dani Carvajal and Éder Militão are fighting to fully recover from their injuries, others like Luka Modric show they're in top form. He proved it in the recent match with the Croatia national team against Czech Republic, corresponding to the qualification for the next World Cup.

Luka Modric excelled with an assist and a goal in Croatia's resounding 5-1 victory over Czech Republic. The three points keep the Croatian national team in a positive dynamic, adding two wins in the two matches played. Meanwhile, the Czech team saw their streak of three consecutive victories interrupted with this tough defeat.

Luka Modric will sign with AC Milan after the Club World Cup

Luka Modric said goodbye to Santiago Bernabéu in the last match Real Madrid played at their stadium this season. It was an emotional match that marked the end of a legendary era at the club, just before facing the Club World Cup. By that date, the coach hopes to have the Croatian midfielder, with whom he'll reunite, this time from the roles of coach and player.

This end of an era at Real Madrid won't mean Luka Modric's farewell to top-level soccer in Europe. Everything indicates that his next destination could be AC Milan, a club with which he keeps an emotional bond since childhood. The Italian team was his favorite during his early years, influenced by the figure of Zvonimir Boban, legendary Croatian midfielder.

Zvonimir Boban was a key piece in that Croatia that made history in the 1998 World Cup, reaching the semifinals, where they were eliminated by France. Later, they would achieve third place by defeating Netherlands in the consolation match. The possibility of Luka Modric continuing his career at the rossonero club would evoke a generational connection between two icons of Croatian soccer.

He will undergo the medical after the Club World Cup

Although Luka Modric may have a verbal agreement with AC Milan, the footballer hasn't undergone the medical examination yet. According to announcements from "SkySports", the player will take the corresponding tests after the Club World Cup, once he parts ways with Real Madrid.

Luka Modric will return from the United States to play in Serie A. The footballer will spend his final years at AC Milan, a club that won't play in the Champions League next season, so he won't meet Real Madrid.
