Luka Modric and Toni Kroos stay! Real Madrid agree contract extension with veteran midfielder and offer new deal to fellow star

<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/real-madrid-luke-modric-toni-kroos-future/blt16bbb79ebec90029" target="_blank">Two of Real Madrid's most iconic players in the last decade will reportedly now stay in Spain</a> for another season. Modric and Kroos are both out of contract this summer but wish to remain part of Carlo Ancelotti's squad. <a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2024/05/18/6648671146163f46398b4585.html" target="_blank">Marca</a> report that president Florentina Perez is seeing to it personally that extensions are agreed with the pair.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The report says the club president has intervened and is the one putting the finishing touches on the deals to keep the two players. Perez held different meetings with the duo and has agreed a one-year extension with Modric, while Kroos has been offered a new deal.

WHAT THE REPORT SAID

Although their minutes on the pitch have been restricted this season, Modric and Kroos bring an irreplaceable level of experience and leadership to Real Madrid. Their guidance and winning mentality will ensure Los Blancos continue to compete at the highest level.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

With their futures seemingly sorted, all eyes turn to the Champions League final on 1 June. Real Madrid are vying for a record-extending 15th victory in the final, while Modric and Kroos can secure their fifth and fourth titles respectively.
