Luka Modric signs contract extension with AC Milan until June 2027
Croatian midfielder Luka Modrić has agreed to stay at AC Milan for another season. The club announced on 23 July 2026 that Modrić, who will turn 41 in September, has signed a new deal lasting until 30 June 2027. He joined Milan in the summer of 2025 after a 13‑year spell at Real Madrid and featured in 37 Serie A matches last season, scoring two goals.
Milan confirmed the extension on its official website, describing Modrić as a key veteran and leader on and off the pitch. The contract reportedly offers a net salary of about €3.5 million per year, with performance‑related bonuses that could raise total earnings to €4‑5 million. The extension comes as Milan finished fifth in Serie A, missed out on Champions League qualification and underwent a major overhaul of its coaching and management staff, with Portuguese coach Rúben Amorim now in charge.
Fans reacted enthusiastically, praising Modrić’s experience and citing his desire to help the club reclaim a Champions League spot. The midfielder said he is “very happy” to continue with the Rossoneri and looks forward to contributing to the next project.
