Luka Modric is set to join AC Milan after agreeing to personal terms with the club's sporting director, Igli Tare, who emphasized Modric's eagerness and leadership skills. The star, who has a remarkable history at Real Madrid, seeks to compete for a championship title, asking directly if Milan will build a winning team. The agreement includes a one-year contract at a salary of approximately €3.5 million with an extension option. Modric aims for crucial playing time as he prepares for the upcoming World Cup in the United States.
“I spoke to him in person and saw a guy who is really eager to be competitive. His arrival is crucial for a group that needs players like him, leadership,” Tare told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The first question Luka asked me was: 'Will we be a team built to win the championship?' He has won six Champions Leagues and wants to be a star player from the start.
“He is important for what he will convey in terms of mentality, leadership and professionalism. The fact that he is an AC Milan fan makes this story even more exciting.
“Personal terms have been agreed between Modric and Milan, sources have told ESPN. He will sign a one-year contract with an option to extend for another year.”
