This summer, Real Madrid's Lukas Modric conversations with Inter Milan caused negative consequences for the player himself.
Marca informs that the 33-year-old Croat will have to fight for his place in the royal club's lineup and prove to coach Julen Lopetegui that he is ready to demonstrate top-level football.
This season, the coach is using a tactical formation of 4-3-3, with guaranteed spots in the midfield line for Toni Kroos and Isco.
In the first La Liga match of the season against Getafe, L. Modric appeared on the field in the 71st minute, replacing Dani Ceballos.
Real Madrid's next game will be on Sunday, when they will face Girona.
