L. Modrič changed the jersey number in the "Real" team

One of the best planet's safe Luka Modric took advantage of a unique opportunity and changed the jersey number at Real Madrid club.

Since his arrival at the club in the Spanish capital, L. Modric had been wearing jerseys marked with the number 19, but when the opportunity arose, the Croatian chose his favorite number - 10.

Until now, attacking midfielder James Rodriguez had been wearing the jerseys with the number 10 in the Real Madrid team, but the Colombian has left for Bayern Munich and is unlikely to return to Madrid.

It was expected that the number 10 would go to the rising club star Marco Asensio, but the veteran of the team L. Modric will now be the 10th in the "white" team's number.

Since 2012, playing in Madrid, L. Modric has played a total of 214 matches wearing the royal club's jersey, won three UEFA Champions League titles and once triumphed in the "La Liga" championship.
