TONI KROOS

• Introduction of Toni Kroos

Tony Kroos, born on January 4, 1990, in Greifswald, eastern Germany, plays as a midfielder for Real Madrid Football Club.

In 2014, Toni Kroos led the German team to win the Hercules Cup, making his name known to the world, and soon transferred to Real Madrid, wearing the No. 8 jersey. Shockingly the transfer fee at that time was only 25 million euros. Kroos joining Real Madrid is a win-win result. It was at the Bernabeu that the German star made his way to become one of the top midfield masters in the world, and created an unprecedented three consecutive Champions League myth with the team!

• Why did Bayern Munich let go Toni Kroos to Real Madrid?

Letting Kroos go is an eternal pain in the hearts of Bayern's management and fans, and the Blancos should definitely thank Bayern Munich for letting Toni Kroos walk away freely. As a former Bayern midfielder, Kroos represented Bayern in more than 200 appearances in total, helping the team win the Triple Crown in 2013 and many other honors. Since the CEO of Bayern only offered a ridiculous 650 euros yearly salary, which is far under the expectation of the 10 million annual salaries of Kroos as a top midfielder, Kroos then switched to Real Madrid after the 2014 World Cup. After Kroos joined Real Madrid, he quickly grew into one of the best midfielders in football. Real Madrid won the Champions League twice, and Kroos played an important role in it. German football legend Matthaus bluntly said that it was the biggest mistake of Bayern to let Kroos go. Later, Bayern chairman Hoeness and the current Bayern sporting director Sammer admitted that it was a mistake to let Kroos go.
