LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Real Madrid CEO Jose Angel Sanchez has expressed substantial interest in the team’s standout player, Luka Modric, originating from Saudi sources.

He affirmed, “There are currently no official negotiations with Saudi League representatives for Luka’s potential transfer in January, and we have no information regarding his departure from the team at this time,” in an interview with Arriyadiyah [Goal Arabic].
While the club is confident about retaining their star midfielder this winter, Modric has expressed his dissatisfaction with the amount of playing time he has received under Carlo Ancelotti this season.
It’s highly probable that the player may depart the club at the conclusion of the season.
Luka Modric and Real Madrid are next in action as they face SC Braga on Tuesday, October 24, in the Champions League.
