3 players who could replace Luka Modric if he leaves Real Madrid

#1 Sergej Milinkovic-Savic

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic could be an ideal replacement for Modric

Milinkovic-Savic has been one of the stand-out performers for the Italian club Lazio since arriving from Genk in 2015. The Serbian international scored 12 goals in 35 appearances in Serie A last season before featuring in all the three World Cup games for his country.

Little wonder he has been the cynosure of many big European clubs lately. At 23, he is yet to hit his peak and could be a long-term prospect for Real Madrid, should they decide to bring him to the Bernabeu.

However, his current employers value him very highly as his release clause stands at a whopping €100 million which could be a stumbling block with regard to a potential move to the Spanish capital.
