“In December he will realize the situation” | Relief
Luka Modricthe part that was needed for real Madridcould have become the player with the most titles won at the club. Following the extension, the midfielder becomes the team’s first captain, which he described as “a huge responsibility, something very pleasant and special. I am very happy to be able to represent Madrid as captain.”
Croatian rejected offers before renewal with the white club and decided to extend the contract, knowing that he was no longer an undisputed starter. Pedja Mijatovic, who knows the player well, spoke about how he made decisions and the future that can await the Croatian.
“He’s going to be 39 and I think he’s close to leaving Real Madrid. I don’t know if he’ll make it to the World Cup. You never know, especially with Luka.but I think it’s time to resign, and if it’s in Madrid, even better,” he said in Spar Kadena SER. Montenegrin explained, click This has given the Croatian a boost and helped him finish the season contributing to the League and Champions League, as well as signing an extension until 2025 that many did not expect at the start of the campaign: “He comes back thinking he is an undisputed starter, he no longer feels the point of starting the season when the years of his undisputed status are over and that is very shocking for someone who has been at the club for so many years. “I think he realized the situation at the beginning of December, and from that point on his goal was to help whenever he could.”
Mijatovic, a Real Madrid legend (118 games and 36 goals from 1996 to 1999), also analysed the new tactical context Ancelotti faced with the arrival of Mbappe, the coexistence of Courtois and Lunin in goal and the always appealing question such as “Is this what the market is?
The question of how Ancelotti plans to deal with Vinicius and Mbappe battling it out on the left has hung over the club since the Frenchman’s arrival was announced. “The great players understand each other well. They train every day with a coach with a lot of experience, plus In football, the hierarchy is known from the very beginning. so i’m sure “Ancelotti will find the right place for everyone.”– Peja stated carelessly.
However, it is not only the striker who is in the spotlight of the fans. After the inevitable rotation of goalkeepers due to the injury of Thibaut Courtois Lunin’s situation is in question after his contract with Madrid was extended. Mijatovic is clear about this, because “the question of the second goalkeeper is difficult. Lunin responded very well to all the games he played, but Now the boy has to play and we don’t have to stop him, so if he wants to leave, I won’t create any problems for him.“.
Finally, he spoke about a position that many consider to be strengthened: the central position. After the panic of Leni Yoro at Manchester United, the white club does not sound the alarm and looks at Tchouameni as a fourth option (Vallejo also returned to Madrid). Last season, the Frenchman already played in this zone. However, Mijatovic is betting on strengthening with a “player with guarantees” and an adventure: “I think we will work on acquiring a defender until August, we will see who it is.”
