6 players who can replace Luka Modric at Real Madrid

#4 Cesc Fabregas (Chelsea)

Struggling for regular playing time at Chelsea, Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas still definitely has the capability to produce moments of magic. Perhaps the player most similar in style to Modric, the former Barcelona playmaker would definitely cause a stir if he did indeed move to the Spanish capital.

Functioning mostly as a playmaker and known for his passing range, he will bring vision, innate creativity, and some solidity to the Real Madrid midfield. Playing in a slightly deeper and more withdrawn creative midfield role for Chelsea, Fabregas still manages to rack up impressive assist numbers every season.

Although the Spaniard has been heavily linked with a move to AC Milan, rumours of him being linked with Real Madrid have refused to die down and Madrid will actually do well if they do indeed somehow incredibly tie up the deal for the former Barcelona midfielder.
