The day after playing a pivotal role in Real Madrid's successful navigation to the Champions League final, Luka Modric sent a video message to Robbie Keane's son, Robbie Jr, on his 8th birthday.
The first born of Ireland's all-time leading goalscorer makes regular appearances on his dad's outstanding Instagram account, whether it's playing football or being the victim of a prank, but it turns out that his old man has some friends in high places.
We knew that Dimitar Berbatov was a massive fan of Robbie Keane, but it turns out the Dubliner made a big impression on Luka Modric too, as the Croatian international passed on this really lovely message for his old teammate's son.
Great player, great guy. Fair play to you Luka Modric. The idea that one of the world's best footballers refers to Robbie Keane's son as "little Keano" has made our day.
We'd love to know who else Robbie could ring up for a favour, that no doubt went down a treat with young Robbie.
Of course, he does get to meet some very interesting people due to his Dad being such a hero to everyone...
The trip to Madrid for a Real game should be fantastic too, although he'll have to ask his dad to hide all the clips of him playing football in a Barcelona kit just to be sure he's not upsetting anyone.
Great stuff.
