Summary
Vicente Azpitarte, Jose Manuel Puertas: Luka Modrić: thorny road to world fame
Book release: 17.6.2016. From the pen of Spanish sports journalists Vicente Azpitarte and José Manuel Puertas, who spoke to about two hundred interlocutors, with a foreword by the legend of Croatian football and Real Madrid, Davor Šuker, we present the biography of one of the best Croatian national team players. The story of Luka Modrić is a story about self-confidence, hard work, overcoming obstacles and love for football. It is a path full of difficulties whose protagonist became one of the biggest stars of world football. Luka Modrić is a humble family man, in love with his country and brave enough to overcome all the criticism that cast doubts on his sports career that he could become a world-class footballer due to his fragile build behind his strong character. With a soccer ball, you will travel through some of the key events that marked Luka Modrić's sports career, such as the huge disappointment after Turkey knocked Croatia out of the European Football Championship in 2008, but also some of his happiest football moments at the Amsterdam Arena, Wembley, the Stadium of Light in Portugal or Milan's San Siro.
