Modric unnerves Real Madrid: living in the present, future uncertain

Luka Modric, the star midfielder of Real Madrid, gave an ambiguous statement about his future with the club at the AS Sports Awards. This particularly caught attention, considering that his contract with the Blancos is set to expire at the end of this season.

He said at the awards ceremony, “Is it renewal with Real Madrid? Now is not the time to talk about this. I live in the present, focused on what I have now. Let’s see what happens in the future.” This feels somewhat non-committal, only amplifying speculation surrounding his future at Real Madrid.
