Former Real Madrid coach Radomir Antic has questioned Luka Modric's Ballon d'Or triumph.

The Croatian midfielder reached the World Cup final last summer and won the Champions League trophy with Los Blancos in Kiev.

"Since when is Modric the best passer in the world, if he hardly makes assists?" he told Goal.

"I can't even say what it means to see him win the Ballon d'Or trophy as the best player in the world.

"It doesn't make sense, as he doesn't make assists or score goals."
