In a new testament that age is merely a number against talent and will, the veteran Croatian star Luka Modric was awarded the Best Player in the Serie A for the month of September, based on votes from the professional players themselves. This accolade confirms the immediate and significant impact of the Croatian maestro in the midfield of his new team, AC Milan.

Despite reaching the age of forty, an age rarely associated with such brilliance at high levels, Modric dominated the rhythm of play in the matches he played during September. The performance of the Ballon d'Or winner was marked by exceptional intelligence, an extraordinary ability to distribute the ball with pinpoint accuracy, and a brilliant control of the pace of the game, making him the primary engine of his team's attacks.

The former Real Madrid star continues to prove that experience and football genius surpass the passage of years. Since his move to Italy, Modric has not only adapted but has also become one of the standout performers in Serie A.

Modric's victory of the award through the votes of professional players adds extra value, as it reflects the respect and appreciation he receives from his teammates and opponents on the field, who unanimously agreed that he was the best performer in the Italian league during the month of September.
