Real Madrid veteran Luka Modric has penned a one-year contract extension with the Spanish giants.
The European champions announced on Wednesday afternoon that the Croatia playmaker, 38, was staying on.

Modric won the 2018 Ballon d’Or, having helped Real to the European title that season and inspiring Croatia to their first-ever World Cup final.
He has played 534 times for Los Blancos, scoring 39 goals.
