"His contract expires in June, but there's an option, a plus-one, which, unlike all the other contracts, is in the player's favor. The club doesn't decide; Modric will decide at the end of the year which path to take. The news I can tell you today, which is actually quite soft news, is that Milan has begun this daily campaign of persuasion."
"The coach, his teammates, and the management are trying to make him understand how important he is now and how important he will be for the future, at least for another year. Milan would like to keep him, they would like to exercise this plus-one, they would like Modric to stay so that he can help the young players around him for next season."
Luka Modric's contract situation at AC Milan differs from typical player agreements. His contract expires in June with a plus-one option that unusually favors the player rather than the club, giving Modric sole decision-making power. AC Milan has expressed clear intent to retain the 40-year-old midfielder. The club has begun a persuasion campaign involving the coach, teammates, and management to convince Modric of his continued importance and value to the team. Milan hopes to keep him for another season to mentor younger players and contribute to the squad's development.
