Luka Modric, the Real Madrid and Croatia midfielder, has become an investor and co-owner of Championship club Swansea, as confirmed by the club on Monday. The 39-year-old, who has enjoyed a successful career with Real Madrid winning six Champions League titles, expressed his excitement at the opportunity to contribute his knowledge to the Welsh club, without the specific investment amount disclosed.
Modric aims to leverage his experience at the highest level to support Swansea's growth positively and help shape an exciting future for the club. Currently focused on Real Madrid's Champions League campaign, Modric's contract with the Spanish club is set to conclude at the end of the season. His move to invest in Swansea follows similar decisions by his teammates Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior in other football clubs, aligning with Swansea's ambition to progress under his guidance. Swansea, positioned 12th in the Championship, welcomes Modric's involvement as an investor and co-owner, emphasizing his role as a positive influence on players across all levels of the club.
