2026 FIFA WC: Luka Modric Is a Major Doubt for Croatia

Date:

April 28, 2026

After being forced off due to injury during the clash between AC Milan and Juventus, Luka Modric has sparked concern in Croatia just weeks before the 2026 World Cup.

Local newspaper Sportske Novosti reports that Luka Modric will not play again this season for AC Milan.

The outlet confirms that the former Real Madrid star is suffering from a double fracture of his cheekbone.

At the moment, it remains unclear whether the 2018 Ballon d’Or winner will undergo surgery or opt for conservative treatment.

Meanwhile, Croatia is hoping to count on their iconic captain for the 2026 World Cup, although he will likely have to play wearing a protective mask.
