Runrun in Valdebebas. Eight days before the Cup final, Modric is suffering from muscular discomfort in his left leg… and it is a serious doubt. The origin was Montilivi: in the 63rd minute they substituted him with notable pain in the posterior area of the thigh, putting ice on the bench. Then the alarms didn’t stop going off, everything seemed more like the result of a routine overload; but several days later, the ailment continues… and has even gotten worse. The Croatian was out in the morning session this Friday and will not be against Almería. That is sure.
The big question, at the moment, is the cup final against Osasuna (next Saturday). And therefore, the first leg of the semifinals against the City. is the first injury that he suffers this season, tiptoeing through two slight overloads at the beginning of the course. Modric, to his 37 yearshad bargained for the infirmary, but has fallen into it at the most critical moment of the season. It is by no means ruled out for La Cartuja, but there are doubts. He is currently undergoing new evidence to clarify what is happening.
tense calm
On the shores of May Modric accumulates 44 official matches with Real Madrid: 2,768 minutes, being the 10th who has participated the most. Without him, Ancelotti would have to rebuild his engine room, in a puzzle of various combinations. One would be to give the band to Rodrygo and delay to valverde; another, give the opportunity to camavinga (Nacho would have to be lateral) or ceballos; and a third, to return Kroos to the wheel and give the pivot to Tchouameni. Formulas for Almería… that perhaps it is time to apply to La Cartuja as well. For now, tense calm.
