Modric, eternal symbol of Croatia

Captain Luka Modric is once again a key player in international football. At 40 years old, the former Real Madrid midfielder appears on the first call-up list by Slaven Bilic, Croatia's new coach. The decision confirms that the veteran will continue to defend the checkered jersey during the break in September and October, in a schedule that will, for the first time, extend over three consecutive weeks.

Demanding schedule in the Nations League

Croatia will debut on September 26 against the Czech Republic, a match that will mark the beginning of an intense streak. Just three days later, on September 29, they will face Spain. Already in October, on the 3rd, it will be England's turn, and on the 6th, they will face Spain again, in what promises to be a high-voltage duel.

The relevance of a leader

Modric's presence brings confidence and experience to a team that seeks to establish itself once again on the international stage. His leadership and technical quality make him an irreplaceable asset. For Croatian fans, his continuity is a symbol of pride and resilience; for the rest of the world, it is the confirmation that football can still count on figures who defy the passage of time. The Nations League will be another stage for Modric to reaffirm his status as a legend.
