Real Madrid announced the signing of Luka Modric in the summer of 2012. Having signed the Croatian for €30 million from Tottenham Hotspur, the Spanish media defamed Florentino Perez and went on to vote for Luka Modric as the worst signing of 2012/13.

However, the soon to be 33-year-old has come a long way since being the subject of hatred in the media. He is now one of the world’s best midfielders of the world. In 2018, he is the candidate to claim the FIFA’s The Best Award and also the Ballon d'Or ahead of players such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi.

Luka Modric’s accolades consist of a total of 14 major club trophies including four UEFA Champions League titles. He has also won numerous awards for being the best midfielder across different competitions.

The worst signing of 2012 is now the outright best midfielder in the world. He is Real Madrid’s engine and an indispensable member of the squad against almost every single opponent. His ability to run the game has been unparalleled in the last few years.
