Luke Modric says he is not ready to retire from international football and plans to keep playing for Croatia past his 41st birthday. He indicates he wants to feature in Croatia’s upcoming UEFA Nations League matches.
Both outlets report that Modric’s next appearances could include Croatia’s game against England as part of the Nations League schedule. The statements frame the upcoming fixtures as a chance for him to continue contributing to the national team rather than ending his international career after turning 41.
The coverage is aligned in its core details: Modric’s age, his decision not to retire yet, and his intention to play in the Nations League. Neither source introduces a contrasting angle such as injury concerns, team selection changes, or a different competition timeline.
