Is Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric one of the best midfielders in history
Modric, 36, has been a mainstay in the Real Madrid side since joining the club from Tottenham Hotspur for £31.5 million in 2016.
During his time at the Santiago Bernabeu, the Croat has had huge success playing a key role in the La Liga outfit's dominance in the UEFA Champions League.
The midfielder has won the European title three times and was touted by many as man of the match during their 3-1 victory over Liverpool in the 2018 final.
His performances in La Liga over his Los Blancos career have been nothing short of sensational.
The Croatia captain has recorded 22 goals and 49 assists in 286 games for the La Liga leaders and is held in high esteem.
There have been notable La Liga midfielders over the past generation, namely Barcelona duo Xavi and Andreas Iniesta.

For Croatia, it is a similar story for the legendary midfielder.
He led the side to the 2018 World Cup Final. If it were not for the generational talent bursting at the seams in the French national squad, Croatia could ended up with the silverware.
He has 20 goals in 146 international games and is regarded by many as the greatest talent the country has ever produced.
