Finds out why Rodrygo calls it “baba” Luke Modricin

There was no shortage of footballers' wishes. Among those messages is Rodrygos' for his <x0baba”, Luca Modric. Yes, you have read correctly, the Croatian is the Brazilian father... in the dressing room.

“Grified Father's Day, Modric”, wrote Rodrygo on his Twitter account, attaching a photo where both look embraced, celebrating a goal. A message between humor and reality, because the side of Madrid's Real is called Luke “baba”, and Luke calls the side “dial”. But at what point did this strong bond of “of family” develop?

Rodrygo found out in an interview at TNT how that father-son relationship started: “One day, talking to him about my father, he discovered that my father is only one year older than he was. He was very surprised and said: “just a year? Then you have to respect me because I can be your father. Since then, he began calling me a son and I was calling him a father.
