Luka Modric has been given the No. 10 by Real Madrid.

The No. 10 for Real Madrid has most recently been worn by James Rodriguez and Mesut Ozil.

Some expected Real Madrid to save No. 10 for a possible Kylian Mbappe signing or a younger player like Marco Asensio or Isco.

Modric previously wore No. 19 and has proven his worth since joining Real Madrid in 2012 from Tottenham Hotspur.
