Luka Modric celebrates his Ballon d'Or with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez

Luka Modric has beaten off competition from the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Antoine Griezmann and Lionel Messi to be named the winner of 2018's Ballon d'Or.

The Real Madrid midfielder played a pivotal role for his club as they stormed to a third consecutive Champions League title, as well as captaining Croatia to second place at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.



 
Indeed, Modric has become the first player to break Messi and Ronaldo's duopoly of the award since 2007, with Brazil icon Kaka being the last to lift the trophy before the Argentine and Portuguese stars collected five each across the following years.

After ending the massive reign of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, he celebrated his victory with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez. You are welcome to Ballon d'Or world
