The 38-year-old Magic Dior bid farewell to Real Madrid! He won 25 championships in 10 years + paid cuts and stayed behind. He has become a rare product in football!

1. The last dance of the Bernabeu: He used 12 years to turn "high-end goods" into "non-sale products"

When Modric, 38, announced his departure from the team at the end of the season, the football world finally realized that this veteran who refused to retire was the last luxury in football.

Champion Harvester: Winning 25 championships in 12 years, the core of the Champions League five consecutive championships, the Golden Globes broke the monopoly of Messi

The king of salary cost-effectiveness: Activist salary cuts by 60% in 2023 (from 21 million euros to 9 million euros), and the salary is only 1/3 of Bellingham

Living Fossil-level endurance: The running distance of the Champions League this season is still 11.3km/game, surpassing the 21-year-old Camavenga

Compared with superstars of the same period: Ronaldo is retired in Saudi Arabia at the age of 39, Messi competed in the US League at the age of 36, and Magic Flute redefines the shelf life of the midfield master with "reverse growth".

2. Real Madrid midfielder replacement code: He taught the post-00s what a "sense of advancedness"

The departure of Magic Diary reveals the cruel truth of the transfer of power in Real Madrid:

The successors' value game: Bellingham 180 million, Kamavenga 100 million, Chu Améni 90 million - the total of three people is more than 5 times the peak value of Magic Diary (75 million in 2018)

Technical poverty alleviation record: Key pass conversion rate in the past five years, Magic Diary 21% vs Bellingham 15%

Downtown Economics: As the only veteran in the team's voluntary salary cut, the salary he saved is enough to sign Guerre

fans sharply commented: "He is like an old mechanical watch - the parts will be old, but when he leaves, he will always be accurate."

Undercurrents in the football world behind the farewell: Loyalty has become an endangered species

The farewell letter of Magic Flute triggered multiple defense breakthroughs:

Slap Saudi gold dollar in the face: Rejecting quotation of 2 years and 300 million euros, choosing to cut salary and renew contract for 1 year

Sarcastic Boseman's method Case: 12 years of 0 transfer fee scandals, becoming the only Croatian in Real Madrid's history without a sign-free + ending in life

crushing the big data era: the pass success rate is 91% + averaging 1.5 key defenses per game, the algorithm cannot calculate his locker room leader value

What is more heartbreaking is that his departure directly leads to:

The oldest goal record of the Champions League is frozen (38 years and 234 days)

No more post-70 Champions League champion member

Real Madrid's midfield experience value plummeted by 50%

4. Next stop guess: retire or fight again? Fans around the world have started the wishing mode

Saudi quotation: 180 million euros in 2 years + private island use rights (rejected)

US League temptation: Beckham personally lobbying + Miami International No. 10 jersey

Parent team easter eggs: Dynamo Zagreb repurchased 0 yuan, or become the biggest card in the history of the Croatian league

But Magic Diary personally admitted: "My body can play for 2 years, but my heart belongs to Real Madrid." It implies that he may directly retire and transform into a coach.

5. Football Renaissance Revelation: Why do we not want to give up the Magic Flute

His departure marks the end of an era:

Technical flow midfielder disappears: Only Cross (87%), the only one of the active players has a success rate of more than 85% of the long passes (87%),

Loyalty inflation: The average duration of a post-95 star playing for a single team is less than 4 years

Old-school football aesthetics: no social media, 0 scandals, and a "anti-Internet celebrity" lifestyle that must be practiced after the game

As Marca said, "He came with the Golden Globes and left 25 trophys away - this is the most elegant counterattack against utilitarian football." When magic came to an end, Modric left the football world not only the outer instep arc and the endless running, but also a performance art about "persistence" - In this era of value and traffic, he proved that some qualities are more precious than data, and some choices are more luxurious than money.

Netizens' Hot Message:

"It is recommended to put the magic flute into the Louvre, title: On how humans defeat time"

"Saudi tyrant: I feel like a dog licking for the first time"

"Real Madrid members petitioned overnight: seal the No. 8 jersey forever!"

Perhaps just like the banner hanging from the Bernabeuan stands: "The magician will retire, but the magic will always stay in Madrid."
