Still regarding Toni Kroos who will retire in the near future, here is a fact that is rarely known to many people, namely that he has experienced pubalgia or in other words it is called a sports hernia. With this condition, Toni Kroos has to endure pain in every match and he once expressed this when he endured the pain of playing for 6 months.

I think this is a condition that is rarely experienced by professional footballers and here Toni Kroos still gives an impressive performance while experiencing this health problem. What is clear is that his retirement this time was not without clear reasons and he would indeed be in a very unhealthy condition if he continued playing. Therefore, he made a difficult decision and chose to hang up his boots sooner at the age of 34 rather than making his situation worse later.
