Modric set to sign new Milan deal this week: the details

Modric set to sign new Milan deal this week: the details Luka Modric looks set to commit his future to Milan, with reports in Croatia indicating the veteran is poised to sign a new contract in the coming days. According to Croatian outlet Germanijak, via MilanNews , Modric has decided to continue his career at San Siro and will put pen to paper on a fresh one-year deal in the middle of the week, most likely Wednesday. The terms are said to mirror last season’s, around €3.5 million plus bonuses, extending a stay that had appeared increasingly likely for a fortnight.

The report notes he recently lunched with new Croatia coach Slaven Bilic, appointed this month after Zlatko Dalic stepped down, who has publicly expressed his wish for the captain to continue with the national team while leaving the decision to the player. There is speculation Modric could bid farewell to the Croatia side with a ceremony around their Nations League meeting with Spain in October. For now, though, his focus remains on fighting for Milan.
