How will Bellingham chase affect Modric’s destiny?
Modric has been a key cog in actual‘s maximum a success midfield this century along with Casemiro and Toni Kroos, however the Spanish giants have already begun preparing for life beyond the mythical trio.
Casemiro, 30, was offered to Manchester United inside the summer season for £70m and changed with the aid of 23-year–vintage midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni from Monaco for round £71m. that they had already signed any other young French midfielder in Eduardo Camavinga, 20, a year earlier from Rennes for £34.4m.
Now actual have turned their attention to capacity replacements for Modric and Kroos, each of whom are out of settlement on the stop of this season. in contrast to Modric, Kroos is much less certain of his plans and is considering retirement.
England and Borussia Dortmund midfielder Bellingham is at the top real‘s wishlist in phrases of a substitute.
Spanish booklet Marca has stated that Modric will only be provided a brand new settlement if Kroos makes a decision to go away the club or they fail to signal Bellingham.

Dortmund can be worrying as much as £130m for for Bellingham, who does now not have a release clause in his agreement.
reports in Spain endorse real Madrid are inclined to spend more than £100m to signal Bellingham, having in large part decreased their spending in current switch windows to stability their budget.
