"Modric didn't want my shirt"

Advíncula was asked which players he had swapped shirts with during his career and replied that he isn't a big fan of asking other players for their shirts, just in case it all goes wrong. The Rayo Vallecano full-back said that he had such an experience with Luka Modric after Peru's friendly meeting with Croatia in March 2018 which the South Americans won 2-0. "I asked Modric if we could exchange shirts but he said no. He explained that Raúl Ruidíaz had already asked him. I have two of James Rodríguez's shirts and one from Mbappé. But I don't really like swapping shirts to be honest, because if you get turned down, it's mortifying - you end up feeling really red-faced," he explained.
