Starting against Cadiz on Saturday, Luka Modric made history as the oldest player to grace the field for Real Madrid in La Liga. At 38 years, 7 months and 25 days old, the veteran midfielder surpassed Ferenc Puskas's record that stood for 58 years by nearly a week.
Despite nearing his forties, the Croatian international continues to consistently drop one masterclass after another.
Even against Cadiz, Lukita was arguably one of the best performers on the pitch, delivering a crucial pass to set up Brahim Diaz for the opener.
Hands down, he deserves that one more season at Santiago Bernabeu. It's all up to the board now, though.
