Toni Kroos (32) has been with Real Madrid for over eight years and has been an integral part of the royal midfield ensemble ever since. In the final Champions League group game against Celtic Glasgow, his club was able to take it easy. Real was already qualified. In the end there was a 5-1 victory.

But, as you know, the world champion showed his skills against Glasgow even if it was for nothing. Perhaps also because Kroos has been trained by a number of great coaches, for whom success is paramount.

In his career, Kroos has played under the orders of coaches: Jupp Heynckes (77/FC Bayern), Louis van Gaal (71/FC Bayern), Zinédine Zidane (50/Real Madrid), former coach of the Spanish national team Julen Lopetegui ( 56/Real Madrid) and Santiago Solari (42/Real Madrid). But the German midfielder was particularly fond of Pep Guardiola (51), with whom Kroos worked at Bayern in the 2013/14 season. The world champion made this confession in the "Universo Valdano" program.

Kroos says of Guardiola: "If I have to choose a coach who is perfect for my game, it is Guardiola. I really enjoyed the year with him, he improved me a lot.” In the final year of his time with German champions Bayern Munich, he played 51 games under the illustrious Spanish coach.

Pas Kupës së Botës 2014, mesfushori u transferua te Real Madrid për 25 milionë euro. Megjithëse Kroos shpjegon: “Guardiola luftoi deri në ditën e fundit që unë të qëndroja me Bayernin”. Shkak i largimit të tij nga bavarezët nuk ka qenë trajneri, por mosvlerësimi i drejtuesive të klubit. Pasi nuk ra dakord për një zgjatje të kontratës me kampionët e Bayernit, Kroos bëri kthesën.

Aktualisht mesfushori Kroos po ecën mjaft mirë edhe nën drejtimin e trajnerit Carlo Ancelotti këtë sezon. Ish-lojtari i kombëtares ka bërë 16 ndeshje, ndërkohë që ka deklaruar se dëshiron ta mbyllë karrierën në Madrid.

The only question is when? His contract runs until the summer of 2023. A decision must be made by next spring whether Kroos will continue to play for the club or give up his career to spend time with his family. The future will tell. In any case, Pep Guardiola will surely be happy about Kroos' statement!
