  • WHAT TONI KROOS SAID ABOUT HIS FUTURE

    The midfielder revealed that he still hasn't made his mind up about next season: "Many things are not clear about what will happen after the Euros. I don’t even have a club contract for next season yet. I would have to clarify that first."

  • WHAT KROOS SAID ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH REAL MADRID

    Still, the midfielder asserted that he doesn't have a conflict with his current club: "There is no problem (with Real Madrid). We’ll see, we’ll talk again, whether the communication will be the same or not, I still know. I’m still in the decision-making process. The relationship between the club and me is too good for there to be problems, and I think both parties are very relaxed and we can be too. Because we are doing well in the season, the season is going well for us. And I believe that we will find a satisfactory solution for both parties."
