  Modric is out of contract at Madrid this summer and his minutes have been limited this season, starting just 12 times in La Liga so far.

  Modric, who joined Madrid in 2012 and has since made 522 appearances for the Spanish giants, will hope to feature in Los Blancos' heavyweight Champions League quarter-final clash with Manchester City on Tuesday in the first of two legs.
