Brazil's Ancelotti praises Luka Modric ahead of Croatia friendly
""Modric can play in any position on the pitch because he's a complete midfielder. [He's] One of the best players I've ever coached. A spectacular professional. Modric is one of a kind. There's no other player like Modric in the world.""
""For Brazil to win the World Cup, we need talent -- and we have it -- and we need to defend well. There's no other way. I'm not convinced by an attacking game alone.""
Carlo Ancelotti commended Luka Modric, highlighting his versatility and professionalism as a midfielder. Modric, now with AC Milan, is expected to captain Croatia at the World Cup. Ancelotti acknowledged Brazil's need for improvement following a recent defeat to France and emphasized the importance of talent and defense for World Cup success. He expressed confidence in players like Vinícius Júnior and Raphinha, despite Raphinha's injury, and remains optimistic about Brazil's preparation for the tournament.
