Luka Modrić, who recently agreed to extend his tenure with AC Milan for another season, has reportedly made a significant declaration regarding his future commitment to the Croatian national team. According to reports from the Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, the veteran midfielder is expected to conclude his international career following the upcoming Nations League fixture against Spain. This match is scheduled to take place on April 6th at the “Poljud” stadium in Split.
The report details that Modrić plans to focus entirely on his club duties with Milan subsequent to this fixture. Sources indicate that he communicated this decision to the national team coach, Bilic. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the news will be formally announced to the Milan fanbase in the near future.
This potential retirement marks a definitive chapter closing for the decorated Croatian player. Having recently secured his professional future in Italy, the timing of his international farewell suggests a clear prioritization of his club career moving forward. The decision to step away from the national squad after the Nations League match provides a defined endpoint for his international contributions.
The expected final appearance against Spain will serve as the culmination of his international duties, allowing him to transition his focus fully back to Milan. The announcement solidifies a clear timeline for Modrić, marking the transition from representing Croatia to dedicating his remaining playing years to his Italian club.
