Luka Modric missed a Real Madrid training session to attend the funeral in Croatia of Tomislay Basic, his first coach and the man who discovered the Croatian star when he was a boy.
Modric's former coach died at the age of 77 on the island of Vir north of Zadar, which is where the Real star travelled to in order to pay his last respects to Basic.
Modric took the news of his former coach's passing very hard and immediately asked permission from his club to allow him to miss the training session in order to attend the funeral. Real Madrid management took no time at all in allowing him to travel at short notice in order to attend the burial
