Midfielder Luka Modric who recently returned from international duty with a hip injury is anticipated to miss up to ten days of action for Real Madrid. On Wednesday afternoon, after Modric had returned from his service with Croatia to exercise with the club, news of his injury was released.
After a workout, testing revealed Modric had a hip overload, which will likely prevent him from playing against Osasuna this weekend. In Madrid’s forthcoming Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk and their upcoming league match against Getafe, they are also expected to be without Modric.
Madrid must now wait in anxiety to find out if Modric will make it back in time for El Clasico in the middle of October. To prepare for the eagerly awaited rivalry match, Los Merengues will be hoping that their star midfielder is healthy for the return meeting against Shakhtar on November 11.
During the international break, Modric participated in both of Croatia’s games and scored in the win over Austria that advanced the Kockatsi to the Nations League’s last four. However, Modric’s injury does not make him eligible for FIFA’s compensation package when a player gets injured on International duty.
Real Madrid won’t receive any compensation from FIFA unlike Barcelona’s case for Ronaldo Araujo
Real Madrid are not eligible to receive any compensation from FIFA in regards to Luka Modric’s injury on International duty. The compensation is part of FIFA’s regulation program to protect players who get injured during international breaks between the season.
Since Modric injury would just sideline him for 10 days, Real Madrid won’t get any money from FIFA for his injury because it’s not serious as per FIFA’s official ruling. The club would have received €20,458 a day if the injury had lasted more than 28 days which is calculated on the basis of player’s basic wages.
