DBasia.news – Real Madrid’s issue during the summer transfer market is trending. The 13th Champions League title achieved last season seemed like the signal of Madrid era, who is now starting the new ear under Julen Lopetegui.
No wonder, Zinedine Zidane left Madrid after presenting the Champions League title in consecutive times. Moreover, the 33-year-old megastar Cristiano Ronaldo who played in El Real for 9 years also left El Real. Ronaldo got 4 Ballon d’Or and 4 Champions League titles there.
Not only the exit of 2 Madrid icons, Mateo Kovacic also left Madrid and joined Chelsea (with loan status) also the probability to lose the other best player Luka Modric. Currently, Modric stated to Madrid president Florentino Perez regarding his intention to leave.
Modric, 32, predicted to join Inter Milan, the only club seriously wanted him. If Modric leaves, Madrid will lose the soul in the second sector, considering Modric has been the best midfielder with his tandem, Toni Kroos. It won’t be easy to find his successor in the transfer market.
“We know what the market is like. I did not believe in the voices (that said he would leave). I know he likes Madrid a lot and the club does not have a player who can replace him,” the former Croatia legend Robert Jarni told Cadena SER.
Modric’s exit will be a big loss for Madrid after Ronaldo’s exit. However, the player who was popular in Croatia 1990-2002, compared that Kovacic’s leave won’t be as big as Modric. Moreover, Madrid seldom send him to the pitch.
“Kovacic has a lot of talent but we have been waiting for him for two years. He can be a footballer who goes a long way but he is not getting enough minutes and, with Luka at Madrid, he will not get them,” Jarni added.
