The Athletic network reported that everyone inside Real Madrid was in shock after Toni Kroos announced his intention to retire from football at the end of the current season.
According to the latest report, Kroos informed Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti of his decision on Monday, and the Italian was greatly affected and tried to persuade him to abandon it, but to no avail.
As for the general feeling within the walls of the Royal Club, it is that “we are all heartbroken” by Kroos’s departure, as everyone hoped that the player would continue for at least another year.
Immediately after the news was officially announced, many Real Madrid players bid farewell to Kroos and praised him on their social media accounts, suggesting how closely everyone was truly connected and affected by the departure of the 34-year-old.
At the same time, Real Madrid decided to bid farewell to its legend in the perfect way, as a kind of farewell party will be held for him after the end of the Real Betis match at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium next week.
Now, everyone inside Real Madrid has agreed on the necessity of achieving the Champions League in order to be the best conclusion to the German’s exceptional career with Real Madrid, during which he achieved 22 titles, and thus it will be the ideal farewell that the player has always dreamed of.
