Game, Set and Match, Modric

If he is not diving off super yachts on the Croatian coast you will find him on the tennis court during his holiday before the start of pre-season training. Croatia and Real Madrid playmaker Luka Modric has blown his own trumpet by posting a photo and the result of a recent friendly tennis match he has played with fellow international Dejan Lovren on Instagram.
“3:6, 1:6, 4:6, a brilliant performance by me…Dejan, you need to practice more,:” said Modric. Perhaps he could challenge another Croatian number 10 midfield maestro, Zvonimir Boban next. Boban is also a keen tennis player who often hits up with former Wimbledon champion Goran Ivanisevic.
