Battle with the Apennines? The last dance of the magic flute: Modric signs with Milan

According to the Italian newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport and Marco Guidi, AC Milan dreams of signing Luca Modric. Milan's new sports director Igli Tare has listed Modric as a key signing target this summer, and coach Allegri is expected to make his first "master-level signing" after his return. The 39-year-old Real Madrid legend contract expires this summer. Although he has received multiple offers, he has not decided on his next deal. The blank space of suspense is Milan's opportunity.

Red and Black Love: From Boban's little fan to San Siro's goal

Children's faith planted the seeds: Modric revealed that his childhood bedroom was covered with Milan posters, and regarded the Croatian senior Boban as an idol, and even wearing red and black jerseys as his photo became popular on the Internet in his early years.

Emotional cards become key bargaining chips: Milan's management knows well that in the reality that it is impossible to provide a Champions League platform, only the "children's dream" that awakens the Magic Flute can break the deadlock. As the fans joked: "The jersey he did not wear the wrong one back then will eventually come in handy."

Although he is almost fortunate, Magic Diary proves that he is still a top midfielder with his actions:

Real Madrid played 57 times this season, contributing 4 goals and 9 assists, and averaging more than 10 kilometers per game; La Liga scored an unsolved volley against Girona, and nearly 70% of the goals came from heavy artillery outside the penalty area, which is clearly a textbook of "the older you get, the more demon you become."

Magic Flute clearly stated that maintaining its state to compete in the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup (at that time, 40 years old) is the core goal. Milan needs to prove that it can provide stable appearance and tactical weight, otherwise Saudi gold rush or more quotation options will be more attractive.

Italian media once revealed that Milan is willing to give an annual salary of 7.5 million euros in three years, but it may be difficult to match under financial pressure. More importantly, Allegri needs to solve the problem of coexistence with Reindez and Moussa.
