Luka Modric returns to Real Madrid action after beating Slovakia 3-1 and booking Croatia's ticket to Euro 2020. His national team have let him go ahead of the friendly against Georgia on Tuesday.

The player returned from international duty twice in a row and has spent 23 days out so this time he will be allowed to come back early before that can happen again. 

Modric has played just nine games this season, with Fede Valverde stepping up to impress in midfield. 

 

Modric will return to Madrid training on Monday ahead of the weekend clash with Real Sociedad.
