England’s ’90min’ said on the 29th, “Coach Carlo Ancelotti needs to find a player to put in the starting lineup instead of Modric, and Modric will not play in the league matches to be held on the 30th and May 3. These two matches, of course, will be played on May 7th. There is a high possibility that he will also miss the Copa del Rey final scheduled for Sunday.”
