Arda Güler received the legendary number 10 jersey directly from Luka Modric, a moment the young star will surely cherish forever.
The Real Madrid legend played his last game for the club in their 4-0 loss to PSG in the FIFA Club World Cup.
After 13 seasons at Santiago Bernabéu, the veteran midfielder is leaving Real Madrid.
Modric hands jersey to Guler
Following Modric's departure, the midfielder has decided to do a parting gesture to one of the youngsters in the team, as reported by Sport.
Upon the team's return from the Club World Cup, just before the players dispersed, Modric retrieved a Real Madrid jersey from his luggage and presented it to Güler. The young Turkish player responded with a heartfelt hug of gratitude.
The 20-year-old talent, increasingly deployed as a central midfielder, started for Real Madrid during their US tour.
The 39-year-old Modric is departing on a free transfer, with AC Milan rumored to be his next destination.
