Modric, 40, is now discussing a new 12-month deal with the Rossonero. Rakitic, speaking to La Repubblica, said of his former Croatia teammate: "I hope he continues for another 2-3 seasons. "At Milan, everything is there: Luka is happy, the club is happy." Rakitic also said of Como midfielder Martin Baturina: "We have Baturina, who is rising in quality as an attacking midfielder at Como. "He needed a few months to adapt, in Zagreb he was the king, it's a comfort zone thing."
