Today Toni Kroos said goodbye to Real Madrid. He still has two games left as a merengue. Afterwards, he will play in the European Championship with Germany and will retire from football.
The video is not a farewell video, nor was it made this year. The video that Real Madrid published in 2023, when the renewal of Toni Kroos until 2024 was made official, has gone viral . However, the music in the video is sad and seems like it is goodbye.
For this reason, thousands of Madrid fans have been moved and have shared the document again . Nobody expected that the Madrid legend would announce his goodbye today. It hurts a lot because he is one of the best players in the club’s history and he is in his best moment.
Everyone assumed that he would stay , because of what he had conveyed to the club in March, and because of the high level he is having this season. He is going to leave football at the highest level, as he had said.
Toni Kroos statement:
“July 17, 2014, the day of my presentation at Real Madrid, the day that changed my life. My life as a footballer, but above all as a person. It was the beginning of a new life in the biggest Club in the world. Today, after 10 years, at the end of the season, this life comes to an end . I will never forget this exciting and successful decade!
I would like to especially thank president Florentino Pérez, the Club and everyone who welcomed me with an open heart and trusted me. But above all I want to thank you, dear Real Madrid fans, for your love and support from the first day to the last. At the same time, this decision means that my career as an active footballer will end this summer after the Euro. As I have always said, Real Madrid is and will be my last club . Today I am happy and proud to have found in my head and in my heart the right moment for this decision. My ambition was always to finish my career at the top of my level. From this moment on, there is only one main thought in my mind and nothing is going to separate me from this: Let’s go for 15!!! HALA MADRID AND NOTHING MORE!
