Luca Modric's age, who is 36 at the moment, is the main thing that has influenced his performance at Real Madrid and I think it's time to replace him with a younger player for next season with the potential and performance that is not much different from Luca Modric. Because historically Real Madrid is a club that is very well known for its performance and strength in winning every trophy in the League.
Luca Modrid if we look at his performances on the field this season, I think he is still very strong. at an age that is not young anymore Luka Modric may be maintained for the next 1 season. Real Madrid performance this season has been very good and Ancelotti tactics really worked by combining old and young players. there are several young players who can replace Luca modrid next season but because they are still able to give the best for real madrid then it is not the right time for other players to replace him.
Yes as long as Modric can still play well then it won't be a problem, but it's not something wrong if Real Madrid already have players for younger ones to replace him. Because after all, it would be better to prepare for it from now on, because when the senior players are still in the team at least it will be good to motivate the younger players. We can see how Marcelo is treated in the team, in fact yesterday Marcelo was not always able to play in the starting eleven. But when there is a certain moment then Marcelo is played, even as a substitute and that is still good for the team and the final result in the match.
Even though Modric is 36 years old, Luka Modric's performance is still very good. I'm not even sure that Real Madrid without Modric can win
the La Liga and Champions League trophies. Therefore, Real Madrid extended Modric's contract until 2023, meaning that Real Madrid still needs
Modric's role next season. Indeed Real Madrid already have a younger midfielder and are prepared to replace Modric such as Camavinga and Valverde,
but Camavinga and Valverde's performances were inconsistent and needed more playing time. So for next season Real Madrid will still rely
on Modric, Kroos and Casemiro in midfield. But Real Madrid have to give more playing opportunities to the young players they have, because
Real Madrid have to start regenerating their squad. Moreover, Real Madrid has just bought another young player to prepare for the regeneration process.
Aurelien Tchouameni, who was bought with a fantastic price, is expected to become Real Madrid's main player in the future.
