🔥 Last minute news: Xabi Alonso sent a request to Luka Modrid, hoping that Luka Modrid, who will manage Real Madrid next season with Arda Güler, will extend the contract in Bernabeu for another year 👇👇
In dramatic events in Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid’s new coach Xabi Alonso reportedly made a bold request for the club hierarchy: Extend Luka Modric’s contract for another season. Croatian Maestro, who will be 40 years old in September 2025, is approaching the end of his current agreement with the Spanish giant planned to end in June 2025. Despite the previous speculation that Modric’s magnificent mission may be about to end, Alonso’s intervention aroused new hopes that the experienced midfielder will continue to be an important figure in the squad in 2025-26 season. According to sources, Alonso predicts that Modric will work with the young star Arda Güler to provide leadership and stability in this season, which promises to be a transition season for the club.
The news comes in time for a significant change for Real Madrid. With Carlo Ancelotti’s transfer to the Brazilian national team after the Clubs World Cup in June 2025, Alonso’s appointment as a coach points to the beginning of a new era. Former Real Madrid midfielder, who carries Bayer Leverkusen to a historical Bundesliga championship, is considered one of the brightest coach skills of world football. His arrival has created great excitement among the fans, but this season, he raised questions about the future of several experienced players, including Modric, whose role is somewhat limited to the emergence of young talents in Ancelotti.
Alonso’s request to keep Modric on the team is a proof of the Croatian player’s permanent quality and impact. Despite his age, Modric continues to be a symbol of perfection, which is still evident in his performance with his vision, passes and the ability to identify the tempo of games. Five times, the Champions League champion and Ballon D’Or award holder makes him an invaluable being, especially in high -betting matches. Alonso, known for his tactical intelligence and smart, technical game, sees Modric as an excellent figure to anchor the midfield and to mentor the next generation stars.
At the center of Alonso’s vision, the integration of 20 -year -old Türk Arda Güler, who has shown bright moments since he joined Real Madrid, includes the integration of Arda Güler. Güler, one of the few players who survived the injury this season, is expected to play a more prominent role in Alonso management. The coach who comes to the task believes that combining Güler’s enthusiasm with Modric’s experienced leadership can create a dynamic midfielder. This combination will not only maintain the competitive advantage of Real Madrid, but will also provide a trouble-free transition when trying to restructuring after the club’s 2024-25 season, which is shaded with injuries and inconsistent performances.
Modric’s decision to extend the contract was not indisputable. Some reports argue that the Real Madrid administration is considering the initially experienced midfielder, citing concerns about the physical capacity that may compete at the highest level. However, Alonso’s support has changed the narrative, and the sources say that Modric has been open to accept a salary reduction to stay in the club, which he called his home since 2012. A meeting between Modric, Club President Florentino Pérez and Alonso is expected to conclude the debate, and the announcement will probably be held before the last La Liga match against Real Sociedad.
Alonso’s strategy extends beyond Modric and Guler. The Spanish player reportedly plans to renew a staff with potential exits for players such as Rodrygo Goes, Dani Ceballos and Lucas Vazquez, whose contracts are about to end. Meanwhile, Alonso set important transfer targets, including Florian Wirtz of Bayer Leverkusen and Alexis Mac Allister from Bayer Leverkusen to strengthen the squad. However, Modric’s potential renewal points to Alonso’s intention to balance youth and experience, and the intention of Real Madrid to continue to be a challenging force in both local and European competitions.
The possibility of Modric’s 14th season in Real Madrid reunited among the fans who saw him as a club legend. In the 2026 World Cup, the desire to play Croatia as a Real Madrid player emphasizes its determination to perform at the elite level. While Alonso is preparing to handle reins, he proposes a vision of continuity and evolution that blends the belief in Modric and Guler with the promising future of the club’s rooted past. While Bernabeu fans are looking forward to the approval, the stage is ready for an exciting episode in Real Madrid history.
