Luka Doncic is a great player, but his future at Juventus is still uncertain.
The midfielder has played his entire career at the Stadio Olimpico, but has had to abandon his club to return to Italy.
He joined the Nerazzurri as a 16-year-old, but was not selected for the start of the season.
A medical later confirmed the player’s decision to move, and Juventus have made no official comment.
Modric has not been on the radar of most Serie A clubs, but that is about to change.
Modrić’s agent, Stefano Pessima, said on Tuesday that the midfielder’s future is uncertain.
“I don’t think he will stay at Juventus,” he told the newspaper La Repubblica.
“It’s a question of his own personal reasons.”
Juventus have offered Modric a contract extension, but the defender’s agent is insisting the player should accept the offer.
Modrics salary would increase to €40m per year if he is signed.
“There are offers from other clubs, it depends on whether he accepts them,” Pessimas said.
“He doesn’t have a contract with Juventus, but he has had several offers from some clubs.”
Modric joined the club in the summer of 2016 and has played in all three Serie A titles since then.
The defender has made five Champions League finals and one Europa League.
