Athletic reports that Real Madrid and Luka Modric are far from agreeing a new contract and it looks like the two sides will part ways after the end of the season.
Los Blancos are skeptical of a new deal for the midfielder and have yet to begin discussions. The 38-year-old is also in doubt about continuing at the Bernabeu as he is unhappy with his role on the pitch at the moment.
The Croatia international has scored just 11 of 26 goals in La Liga. So far he has been used mostly as a substitute.
Modric does not want to retire yet. He already has offers from Croatia Saudi Arabia and the United States with a move to MLS a preferred option for the midfielder.
