Both of them play in the same club and belong to different teams. Modric in Real Madrid, commonly known as Real Madrid, is ahead of Rakitic's influence in Barcelona. Why do you say that?
First of all, modric's central value on the court is higher: both of them can be competent for multiple positions, but the difference is that modric's passing in running can cause enough deterrence to opponents. Secondly, he has good organizational ability to attack opponents. Modric is good at both. These factors directly lead to modric being a key player in any team. Rakitic looks really good on the surface, but he is more suitable to play a more important role in a lower-level team. But once he reaches the top giants, his tactical strategy may make him more suitable for a less important role with little influence on the result of the game.
On the other hand, in modric, modric's skills are slightly better than Rakitic's skills and all-around, and he is slightly better in organizing attacks and techniques. Modric's comprehensive strength in all aspects is above that of Rakitic. Even as far as Rakitic's strong defense is concerned, on the surface, it seems that Rakitic's passing and other actions on the football field are also comfortable.
He is not only inferior to modric in offensive organization, but also inferior to modric in defensive interception. Don't be fooled by Rakitic's apparent strength. From the most taboo games, we can clearly understand that modric's interception and blocking ability is better than Rakitic's. Although modric looks emaciated, his prediction is often the key to better help the team build an advantage and win the game.
