Imo, the development and regeneration that Madrid is doing is to make Modric comfortable when he leaves and not have anything to think about after he is not in Madrid uniform.
Age, which is the main enemy for athletes, cannot be avoided and Mordic is aware of that.
The longest he will be in the squad is next season and it is most likely until the end of this season but after his departure Madrid will continue with the regeneration of players that they have done in recent seasons so that he will not have a burden and will leave comfortably.
I think so too, Real Madrid's development of a new generation of young players doesn't threaten him, in fact he'll be happy to see a bright future for the team he's been playing for all these years. I'm sure he won't feel outclassed and I'm sure he'll give a lot of advice to the young players who will replace him, be it in terms of play, mentality or perhaps other things outside the game such as attitude and so on.
As a professional player, that should be the case, because it also has a good impact on this sport that is of interest to many people.
When he has the same age younger he will still be an option but we know age cannot be stopped and currently Modric's age has reached 37 years and as I recall, this is a very old age for Madrid to keep because sometimes at the age of 34 -36 years Madrid always makes changes but not with Modric where he has reached the age of 37 but until now he is still trusted for the Madrid midfield which proves that he is a very reliable player but indeed the age of 37 years is clearly difficult to be used as a starter again now so it's time for Modric to go with pride in himself for the achievements he has given until now.

There is no problem at all about Modric being on the bench because it means that Real Madrid have managed to regenerate players very well. After all, Modric contract will also expire at the end of this season, and it is also very unlikely for Real Madrid to extend Modric contract because Modric age is no longer young to play longer in the Real Madrid squad. So yes, the elimination of Modric from the main Real Madrid squad is clear, it is not a problem whatsoever because this factor is precisely for the good of Real Madrid for the long term too of course.
That's the point because at the end of the day it's not about respecting the player, it's just that regeneration is important for a club so Madrid have to renew their players so that they can still compete and have a positive record in competitions.
On the other hand, Modric will still be considered a legend for Madrid even if he is not at Madrid until the end.
