Real Madrid fans can be a notoriously tough crowd to please. In no uncertain terms, that became clear to Luka Modric shortly after he left Tottenham and moved to the Bernabeu in 2012.
After a slow start to his career as a Galactico, Modric was voted the worst signing in all of Spanish football that season in a poll held by a national newspaper.
Safe to say, the Croatian playmaker has done okay since then. Four Champions League titles, along with two La Liga winner’s medals, have forced those critics to revise their opinion.
