2. Luka Modric
2018 Ballon d’Or winner and World Cup finalist Luka Modric will perhaps be the most popular free agent in the summer, as he is set to depart ways with Spanish giants Real Madrid. The Croatian midfielder has had a decorated career at the Santiago Bernabeu, winning the La Liga once, the Champions League four times while also tasting domestic and international cup successes.
Italian heavyweights Inter Milan, who swooped in for Modric in the summer, have reignited their interest in the midfielder. Beckham’s Inter Miami is also prepared to offer a lucrative deal for the former Tottenham Hotspur man who will be available for free in the summer. The newest club in the Major League Soccer are wanting to build their brand and are ready to double Modric’s wages to lure him to the States.
Luka Modric has been one of the best central midfielders in recent times, known for his incredible vision, close control and passing range. There’s no doubt that he would walk into any top team in world football, such is his ability and mastery of the game. The Croatian captain is 34 now, and having scored his 100th career goal recently, he will look to end his illustrious career on a high.
