"It's Very Strange": Ancelotti Confirms Modric Is Not Happy, Explains Why

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Luka Modric is not happy with his lack of playing time this season.

"He's not happy he's not playing," Ancelotti said in a press conference on Thursday. "It's very strange to see Luka not playing but he'll have minutes. For sure. He will help us during the season."

Modric has not started any of Madrid's first two league games of the season, with Ancelotti preferring to start Eduardo Camavinga in his place. 

Ancelotti's decision to bench Modric is likely because the 37-year-old is no longer getting young and wants to build a new young squad. 

However, Modric is still a world-class midfielder and he has a lot of experience to offer. He is also a leader in the dressing room and his presence is important to the team.

Ancelotti has said that he will give Modric more playing time as the season progresses, and he will be a valuable asset to Madrid if he can stay fit.
