Real Madrid veterans Toni Kroos and Dani Carvajal have spoken openly about Luka Modrić’s future, acknowledging that the 39-year-old midfielder is entering what they described as his “last moments” at the club. In separate interviews published on 5 July, Kroos praised Modrić’s enduring technical quality, saying the Croatia captain "will never lose his qualities with the ball" despite no longer matching the physical level of his early 30s. Carvajal added that the squad is making sure Modrić "enjoys his last moments in the Real Madrid shirt," underscoring expectations that the five-time Champions League winner could soon depart or retire. Neither player specified a timeline for Modrić’s decision, and Real Madrid have not issued an official statement. The playmaker, who joined the Spanish side in 2012, remains under contract through next season.
