Real and Modric are yet to open talks about a new deal, but Mijatovic can see him staying.
He said, "I think Modric is closer to staying than leaving.
"He has shown that he wants to stay, he had great offers and he wanted to stay here. He really wants to be in the World Cup and continuing in a very competitive team is very important for him."
