Livakovic said, "Girona seems like a very interesting and attractive club to me, and that's why I decided to come.
"I talk a lot with Modric; he's my teammate and friend, and he helped me make the decision to sign. He spoke highly of Girona and its coach."
Livakovic, 30, joined Girona on-loan from Fenerbahce last month.
