🍷 Like a fine wine; Modrić reaffirms legendary status with new milestone Milan will certainly be disappointed to be level with mid-table side Torino at San Siro. However, the match marks a huge milestone for midfield legend Luka Modrić. After 13 incredibly successful seasons at Real Madrid and super spells with Tottenham and Dinamo Zagreb prior, Modrić joined Milan last summer.

And at the age of 40, the Croatian has become a fixture in the Rossoneri's midfield, making 29 Serie A appearances since arriving. As a result, Modrić has now reached a remarkable 550 appearances in Europe's Big 5 leagues since his Tottenham debut in the 2008/09 season. Only Atlético Madrid's Antoine Griezmann has made more (555).

So, where do you think Modrić ranks among football's midfield greats? Let us know in the comments!
