Milan, Allegri and the squad are pushing for Modric to renew his contract: there is a "temptation"

Another week has gone by, another match has been played, and a hard-fought victory over Torino brings Milan closer to their most important goal of the season: a return to next season’s Champions League.

And it is precisely the European factor that could be one of the key factors in persuading Luka Modric to extend his contract with the Rossoneri. A renewal that everyone at Milan are pushing for.

MILAN WANTS A CONTRACT EXTENSION
Modric’s contract officially expires at the end of the season, on 30 June 2026. Playing in the World Cup with Croatia and arriving there in peak physical condition has always been his priority. Choosing Milan was a natural decision last summer, but now more than ever the Rossoneri would like to keep him for next season as well.

THE CLAUSE, ALLEGRI AND HIS TEAM-MATES
The current contract includes an automatic one-season extension clause, but there is an agreement between the club and the Croatian midfielder whereby Modrić alone will decide whether or not to trigger it.

However, it is not only the management pushing for an extension, but also Massimiliano Allegri, who has practically always selected him as a starter this season, and even his teammates, who are trying to convince Modric to extend his contract within the dressing room.
THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TEMPTATION
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Champions League is the biggest temptation Modric currently faces. He is tempted to play another season with Milan, even though he will turn 41 in September, so that he can compete in the next Champions League wearing the Rossoneri colours and experience the thrill of European football that has been etched in his mind since childhood, ever since he used to follow the great Milan players of the past.
