Per Gianluca Di Marzio, AC Milan are CONFIDENT that they will sign 39 year-old Luka Modrić TOMORROW!
This is massive news. A move to Serie A would keep Luka in great shape ahead of the 2026 World Cup with zero pressure on playing double weeks, as Milan will not be participating in any European tournament. This move makes sense as Modrić can “Pirlo” his late career in Serie A while only being a one hour flight away from Croatia. Let’s see if the move becomes official on Wednesday.
Looking like we are switching to Adidas
Adidas is reportedly the frontrunner. The switch wouldn’t be until after the World Cup, so the new kits will be Nike regardless. Hopefully Nike doesn’t half-ass the new design if they already know they’re on the way out.
Rijeka could be sold to an American billionaire? I don’t pay much attention to club ownership, but this pretty unexpected.

Klasnic didn’t discover America y’day re: Angelo Stiller
Dec 2021 interview he said his mom is Croatian and his teammates (including Kramaric) didn’t realize he was listening in on their conversations

Croatia NT needs players that feel Croatian, being born Croatian isn’t enough
Let’s be precise – as Klasnic is wrong on Stiller’s mom being Croatian – Stiller’s mom was born in Munich – she is German – but her parents (his Grand-Parents) are Croatian – maybe Klasnic can stop being a nose-picker and do his research (like reading this article) before opening his mouth
I always laugh when people think that being born in a country somehow changes your ethnicity.
Stiller’s mom is Croatian, regardless of whether she was born in Munich or not.
Agree w you
But that’s not what we’re talking about
We’re talking about Klasnic trying to be a smart-a*s saying Stiller could have played for Croatia bc of his mom
So we must refer to rules
He isn’t eligible for Croatia bc of his mom – but bc of his Grand-Parents (rules are need at least 1 Grand-Parent from a country, he happens to have 2)
So Klasnic is wrong (from an eligibility standpoint – as eg if Stiller has a kid, that kid won’t be eligible for Croatia bc his Grand-Mother (Angelo’s mom) was born in Germany)
Klasnic also implying Croatia missed on Stiller (btw he only has 4 caps w 170-something minutes w Germany so far it’s not like he has 20-30 caps) and they didn’t realize he’s eligible
That’s also not true – the Hoffenheim 2021 interview/articles proves this
Stiller didn’t want to play for Croatia bc he obviously doesn’t feel Croatian – who cares – we move on
Jarred Bowen rejected Martin Baturina – not good enough for West Ham
