Today he is the best player in the world, but behind him is a very interesting and touching story.
The story of the life of the Croatian midfielder was introduced through a documentary by Pavle Balenovic, referring to the years '89 and '90.
The documentary was made public by BBC while the Croat family is the protagonist in the confession.
Persecuted by Serbs who killed his grandfather, a sheepdog, Luke never removed the ball from his feet.
In the images shown, there is a great contrast between Modric's two lives, where he appears helping his family goat pasture.
After fleeing from the Serbs and settled in Zardar, Luka became more connected with the ball, and the merits of what he has achieved so far has his first coach, Tomislav Basic, who died in 2014.
He grew up with the images of his idol, former Milan player Boban, who at yesterday's ceremony admitted that Modric had passed him and blew up in tears when he did not forget to greet him as his idol.
