3 players Real Madrid could sign if Modric leaves

Real Madrid v Bayern Muenchen - UEFA Champions League Semi Final Second Leg
Modric has dazzled the Santiago Bernabeu over the years

#1 Miralem Pjanic

AS Roma v Juventus - Serie A
Pjanic's defensive contributions are decent

A commanding force in Juventus' midfield, Miralem Pjanic has been crucial to whatever the Old Lady has done since 2016.

The Bosnia and Herzegovina midfielder has it in him to make it big with Real Madrid in the La Liga and in Europe. A lynchpin, Pjanic has orchestrated the play for Juventus the previous season.

He was efficient at it and even contributed defensively to the team. Just like Modric, he can also play in various positions.

He doesn't possess the incredible speed or dribbling ability, but certainly has the necessary attributes needed to command and dictate a game.

He made 44 appearances for Juventus last season and bagged 7 goals to his name. He also has an impressive 90.2% passing accuracy. He contributed 1.9 key passes per game and had an average of 66.7 passes a game.

At defence, he made 1.2 tackles, 2 interceptions, 0.8 clearances a game, which are decent statistics, given Pjanic primarily plies his trade as a central midfielder.
