Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe has penned an emotional tribute to teammate Luka Modric, who has officially announced his departure from the Spanish giants at the end of the current season.

The Croatian midfielder, who has been a cornerstone of Real Madrid's success for over a decade, is set to play his final home game at the Santiago Bernabeu, bringing an end to his remarkable 13-season tenure at the club.

Mbappe, who recently joined the Spanish champions, expressed his admiration for the 38-year-old veteran with the heartfelt message: "You wrote history," acknowledging Modric's immense contribution to Real Madrid's legacy.

Since joining from Tottenham Hotspur in 2012, Modric has established himself as one of Real Madrid's most decorated players, winning numerous titles including multiple Champions League trophies. His elegant playing style, vision, and leadership have made him an iconic figure at the club.

The 2018 Ballon d'Or winner's departure marks the end of an era for Real Madrid, as he was instrumental in the club's dominance in European and domestic competitions over the past decade.

While Modric's next destination remains unconfirmed, his legacy at Real Madrid is firmly cemented as one of the club's greatest midfielders of all time.

Fans are expected to give the Croatian maestro an emotional farewell during his final appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu, celebrating his extraordinary contribution to the club's illustrious history.
