Real Madrid’s midfielder, Luka Modric, has made a speedy recovery from his injury and is poised to take part in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Manchester City. The Croatian player had suffered an injury a week ago, causing him to be initially ruled out of the match.
At the time, there were concerns that the unspecified injury could sideline him for the remainder of the season. However, Modric’s speedy recovery has come as a welcome relief to Real Madrid’s coaching staff.
During Madrid’s Copa del Rey final against Osasuna on Saturday, Modric came on as a late substitute, indicating that his fitness is improving. He is now expected to be a part of the squad for Tuesday’s crucial match against Manchester City.
Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, has confirmed that Modric will play a key role in the match. In a statement to reporters before the game, Ancelotti expressed confidence in the player’s fitness, saying, “He can play without a problem. He is going to play.”
Modric’s return will be a significant boost for Real Madrid, who are set to face a formidable Manchester City side in the semi-finals. With his experience and technical ability, the 2018 Ballon d’Or winner could prove to be a crucial player in Madrid’s bid to reach the final of the Champions League.
