L. Modric: C. Ronaldo - Past, Present, and Future of the "Real" Team © EuroFootball.com

Madrid's "Real" club defender Luka Modric praised his teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. The Croatian is convinced that the superstar of the royal club can be compared to the legends of the team Alfredo Di Stefano and Ferenc Puskas. C.Ronaldo recently surpassed the Hungarian F.Puskas in the list of the club's top goal scorers in European tournaments and received praise from his teammate. "Looking back at the past, 'Real' had Di Stefano, Puskas, later - Raul, and one of our coaches Zidane. Now there is Cristiano - the past, present, and future of the club," said the Croatian. L.Modric also stated that he is not at all afraid of the Turin "Juventus" club, which they will meet in the UEFA Champions League tournament on Tuesday. "We are not afraid of the 'Juventus' team. They have a good team, which we respect, but we are not afraid of them. There are great players there, and when you play in such high-level matches, you want to compete against high-level players," L.Modric insisted.
