Real Madrid boss, Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that midfielder Luka Modric will never accept to be a bench player in his squad.
Modric’s playing time has been limited under Ancelotti.
The Croatian international is out of contract with Real Madrid this summer and he is expected to leave Santiago Bernabeu.
The former Tottenham Hotspur star had the opportunity to sign for a Saudi Arabian club last year but decided to stay and fight for his place at Real Madrid under Ancelotti.
However, speaking ahead of Madrid’s El-Clasico clash with Barcelona on Sunday, Ancelotti said Modric never stops to train.
“Luka Modrić will never accept to be a bench player, I know him well,” Ancelotti said.
“He never stops to train, to fight…he always has the same excitement and will to fight and play. He will never accept that.”
