Former Ballon d\u2019Or winner Luka Modric taunts Kylian Mbappe over contract extension talks. The Real Madrid midfielder is due to prolong his deal with the club and is scheduled to sign it until 2023 after the UEFA Champions League final. The player says he won\u2019t do it like Mbappe, with context to how the PSG striker ditched the Spanish club at the last moment.<\/p>\n
The 23-year-old from France, Mbappe was a long term interest for Real Madrid and the club were confident enough to have the player signed in Spain this summer. Mbappe\u2019s contract extension with home club Paris Saint-Germain shocked everyone as he chose to not join the 13-times European champions this summer and extended for the Ligue 1 side until 2025. Modric is also running out of contract and the player said, \u201cI have not extended my contract with Real Madrid yet\u2026but I won\u2019t do like Mbappe (laughs),\u201d he told\u00a0El Partidazo de COPE<\/em>, as reported by Fabrizio Romano. \u201cAnd I hope the club won\u2019t do that to me,\u201d he further said.<\/p>\n Los Blancos are prepared for Modric\u2019s stay for one more year at the club as the midfielder is anticipated to sign until the 2024 season to continue his tremendous form with the 35 times La Liga champions. Real Madrid is currently focused on their UCL final against Liverpool on May 29, 12:30 am IST for a record-extending 14 Champions League title after their iconic 35th league trophy win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Real Madrid is prepared for Modric\u2019s stay for one more year at the club as the midfielder is anticipated to sign until 2024 to continue his tremendous form. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":169,"featured_media":34102,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[449,697,1778,568,447,266],"class_list":["post-11633","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-kylian-mbappe","tag-ligue-1","tag-luka-modric","tag-paris-saint-germain","tag-psg","tag-real-madrid"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/169"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
