Toni Kross is a legend at Real Madrid and he closed the season by winning two prestigious trophies as a final farewell because he had chosen to retire. The fans of course lost one of the most influential players in the Real Madrid team because Toni Kroos presence on the field was always able to make a big contribution to the team in achieving victory. But with his decision to retire, of course it is a decision he has thought about and he will enjoy his retirement with lots of time with his family.
I was steaming the celebration yesterday and I couldn't measure the amount of love those guys have for him, they were chanting stay, stay and he was responding that he is leaving, the love is incredible and he is also determined this time to focus on his academy and his family and I think he would do better there as well but one thing I love about Real Madrid players, even if they don't play anymore for the club, they do come by to check the club time to time.
Apart from that, Real Madrid is dominated by young players and perhaps only Luca Modric is one of the remaining senior players in the team. Yes, we'll see whether Luca Modric will stay with Real Madrid because currently discussions about the contract are still continuing and hopefully Real Madrid will give Luca Modric time for the next season.
Modric has overstayed in Real Madrid but if you look at him very well, anyone would understand because there is nothing he need as a player that he hasn't achieve, going to another club would be a burden and would probably not achieve anything again because of his age but with the new young players, he can still win some trophy with Real Madrid. I have a feeling that he would like to retire next season because no way he would want to end his career suffering for another club, the blood will remain Hala Madrid.
