Toni Kroos has ruled out any possibility of a return as a player to Real Madrid, ending speculation that had run rampant during a difficult season for the club in the Champions League and in midfield.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid have struggled to balance their squad this season, particularly in midfield, which has seen Kroos’ name frequently mentioned as a possible solution. However, the German himself has closed this discussion clearly.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the “Laureus Awards Gala” in Madrid, Kroos said that he never thought about a comeback.<\/p>\n
“No, honestly no. I never had that thought because I stopped exactly as I wanted. I closed the chapter. Even if I thought about a comeback, it’s too late – my finish was at the highest level and everything after it would be worse,” he said. he.<\/p>\n
Kroos retired in 2024 at the peak of his career, after winning the Champions League once again with Real Madrid in the 2023-24 season.<\/p>\n
He ended his career with six Champions League trophies and a World Cup with Germany.<\/p>\n
He emphasized that he is now focused on life after football.<\/p>\n
“Now I have other motivations and projects in life. That phase ended well and I left happy,” he added.<\/p>\n
Despite this, reports say Real Madrid are still considering Kroos for off-field roles in the club’s sporting structure at the Bernab\u00e9u, reflecting the huge impact he has had on the club’s history.<\/p>\n
In the evening, he was presented with the Laureus Sporting Inspiration Award, a rare accolade given to only a few sportsmen and teams in history, in recognition of his outstanding career and impact on modern football.\/Express<\/p>\n
