Luka Modrić will stay a Milan player for at least one more season.

There was a lot of uncertainty over the future of Modrić at the end of last season, as there were voices saying that he was so disappointed with Milan missing out on the Champions League qualification on the last Matchday that Luka was considering his next steps.

However, following a positive World Cup with Croatia at the age of 40, the Ballon d’Or winner and the player who was one of the top performers for Milan in 2025/26, put pen to paper and signed a deal with Milan for another year.

A statement on the website of the Rossoneri confirmed on Thursday: “AC Milan is pleased to announce that Luka Modrić has signed a contract for a further season, until 30 June 2027.

“A key figure in the Rossoneri midfield since his arrival, Luka has brought his experience and quality to the service of the team, both on and off the pitch, with humility and great passion. One of the finest and most iconic players in world football, the Croatian will continue his journey in the Rossoneri shirt – with which he made 37 appearances and scored 2 goals last season – with the ambition to reach new, important milestones.

“Luka Modrić will continue to wear the number 14 shirt for AC Milan.”
