Real Madrid were the ideal club for me, and, when I knew they were interested, I couldn't think about anything else.
Quote by -Luka Modric
I would say the best Croatian player in 2014 was Ivan Rakitic, leading Sevilla to Europa League glory and earning a big transfer to Barcelona.
Quote by -Luka Modric
When the war started, we became refugees, and it was a really tough time. I was six years old. These were really hard times. I remember them vividly, but it's not something you want to remember or think about.
Quote by -Luka Modric
I always said that I would like to finish my career in Madrid if it's possible.
Quote by -Luka Modric
Jelavic improved massively going to the Premier League. He was great for Rangers, but Premier League is different: faster and more physical. He is perfect for the Premier League, has everything to succeed.
Quote by -Luka Modric
When you play a semi-final, it is impossible to be tired. You know how much is at stake.
Quote by -Luka Modric
My emotions, when I think about the time I spent at Spurs, are always really positive.
Quote by -Luka Modric
When you win something, once, twice, three times, and you have that feeling, that pushes you forward again. You want to win more and more and more.
Quote by -Luka Modric
The Premier League is the best competition in the world, and it's not easy to win a league with great teams like Man United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, and Arsenal as rivals.
Quote by -Luka Modric
Tottenham is the club that first gave me my opportunity to play in one of the strongest leagues in the world.
Quote by -Luka Modric
Playing at Real Madrid is something special in itself, but winning trophies with Real Madrid is even more thrilling.
Quote by -Luka Modric
After four seasons with Tottenham, where I had grown as much as possible, I needed new challenges for the sake of improving.
Quote by -Luka Modric
We are Madrid, and we want to define our own philosophy. We don't want to be compared to anyone.
Quote by -Luka Modric
My father is strong in his legs, and I think I get that from him. I am stronger there than in my upper body, but that is what gives me a low centre of gravity. It makes it harder for opponents to get me off the ball.
Quote by -Luka Modric
Of course it is very important for me to play for Croatia, however different it is to play at club level.
Quote by -Luka Modric
It is very challenging to adapt to life at a big club like Madrid, but I'm not the kind of person to make excuses.
Quote by -Luka Modric
Madrid is a big and beautiful city with great parks where I like to walk. There are a lot of squares and museums, historic monuments. But I'm more a home guy; I feel most comfortable there with my wife and kids. We play, watch cartoons, like all families do.
Quote by -Luka Modric
My father fought for me to play football. He never had to make me shinpads, but it was a lot of money to send to me to a soccer school. And to provide boots and things.
Quote by -Luka Modric
The toughest away match in La Liga for me used to be the one against Osasuna.
Quote by -Luka Modric
I believe that I've improved a lot as a player and a person, because being surrounded by great players on a daily basis helps your development out on the pitch.
Quote by -Luka Modric
I remember my first shin pads had the Brazilian Ronaldo on them, and I loved them.
Quote by -Luka Modric
All my future plans are related to Real Madrid, and there are no other clubs on my mind. I'm so happy here along with my family. Few players have ended their career here, Zidane being one of the exceptions. I'd like to be one of those players, too, but time will tell what the future holds.
Quote by -Luka Modric
When I first heard Madrid were interested, nothing else mattered. I just wanted to come here. This is the best club in the world, with the best coach and great players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Xabi Alonso, Gonzalo Higuain, Angel Di Maria... so many great players.
Quote by -Luka Modric
When the boss chooses the system, we must play as well as possible and give everything. It is good to be able to use various systems so that you can change in difficult moments.
Quote by -Luka Modric
People in Real ask me about Mateo Kovacic all the time. He is a phenomenal talent and will play in some of the biggest clubs. Inter is a big club, no doubt, but Kovacic will play in even bigger.
Quote by -Luka Modric
It was my dream come true when I signed for Real Madrid. I want to stay here for as many years as possible and, if it's possible, finish my career here.
Quote by -Luka Modric
What is the most important is never to give up, never to give in to circumstances, to trust yourself.
Quote by -Luka Modric
My position at Tottenham was in the centre of midfield, and I have played there for Croatia, I feel I am best there.
Quote by -Luka Modric
My whole career, when I was in Croatia, people questioned me, saying I wouldn't make it, that I wasn't good enough because I wasn't big and strong.
