It seemed that Luka Modrić was definitively lost for the Copa del Rey final on Saturday, that he was in question for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final next Tuesday, and then Carlo Ancelotti made all Real Madrid fans happy.
The legendary expert on Real's bench said at today's press conference that Modrić is recovering much faster than expected.
"Maybe he will make it to Saturday," Ancelotti said, referring to the Cup final match against Osasuna at "La Cartuha" in Seville, reports As.
Ten days ago, Modrić complained of a muscle injury during the match with Đirona, and as As adds, after that he also went to Belgrade to see doctor Marijana Kovačević, who is famous for treating muscle injuries.
Real expects a match with Sociedad in La Liga tomorrow, the aforementioned Copa del Rey final on Saturday, and the first match of the Champions League semi-finals against Manchester City on Tuesday.
