Luka Modric has been an outstanding player in the Champions League this season, with a lot of excellent performances. The Croatian has been at an incredible level, controlling the game and dictating play from the middle of the pitch.
He has contributed massively to Real Madrid's development this term, using his incredible talent and amazing skills to influence the overall performance of the team. Keeping possession, making intelligent moves and sending killer passes into the offensive areas, Modric has been a vital cog in the Los Blancos attack.
He also served as a source of relief for the defenders, tracking back in moments of pressure to pick the ball, holding on to it before distributing good passes and restarting attacks. This was evident in their 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich at the Bernabeu recently.
The Croatian is one of the best midfielders in the Champions League this season, completing 620 passes, 8 shots, and 12 dribbles. He also has a goal and an assist to his name in the tournament.
