About Luka Modric

Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric, who was born on September 9, 1985, is a professional football player from Croatia who also serves as captain of his country’s squad.

He joined Premier League team Tottenham Hotspur in 2008 for a club-record transfer fee of £16.5 million. During the 2010–11 season, he guided Spurs to their first UEFA Champions League appearance in nearly 50 years, advancing to the quarterfinals.

Early Life

SR Croatia, then a republic within SFR Yugoslavia, was home to Zaton Obrovaki, a village located on the southern slopes of the mountain Velebit, north of the city of Zadar, where Luka Modric was born on September 9, 1985, and raised.

He is the older of two children born to knitwear factory workers Stipe Modri of Modrii and Radojka Dopu of Kruevo near Obrovac. When he was five years old, Modri was shepherding goats and spent most of his early years at the stone home of his paternal grandpa, after whom he was named, which was situated on the road above the hamlet of Modrii.

Career

He attended representative camps and received support from his family to train at NK Zadar. Coach Domagoj Bai and Tomislav Bai, the youth academy director, were responsible for his instruction. Modri’s “sporting father,” Tomislav Bai, claimed that Modri’s father constructed him wooden shin guards because they were poor.

When Modri was younger, he competed for the Croatian under-15, under-17, under-18, under-19, and under-21 teams. Despite his talent and psychological maturity, he did not establish himself as a regular starter and main player until he made his under-18 debut in March 2001 for the Martin Novoselac-coached under-15 team.
