Toni Kroos is a talented player and was as successful a midfielder for Germany as he was for Real Madrid. He spent most of his career at Real Madrid. The star is out of contract with Real Madrid this season so the big question now is whether the star will perform for another club or retire from all forms of sports. If you look at all the other older stars you will see that many older footballers are still involved in football so I think a player who was involved in regular football will not retire from football so soon. Maybe he will start his football career again by going to a club outside of Europe or Europe.

You're right, I just hope that we continue to see the brilliance of his game, because a player like him is not worth retiring, he would do so too young. Sometimes in Spanish football they are very radical about the issue of age, they are already 25-27 Years old and they tell them that they are already old and no, as long as they perform adequately, I think they can continue to make a difference, There are many clear examples, Buffon, CR7, Modric, so I think that in Spanish football they denigrate a lot the good players, that is something that will always be true, except for Arab football, German football, where I have seen that they give them their Importance.

Toni Kroos is without doubt one of best midfielders of his generation and I totally understand why football fans across the globe are begging for him to continue playing professional football for a longer time but the truth is that we're not going to see Toni Kroos play professional football after the ongoing UEFA Euros Championship because the Germany international have deemed it necessary to quit football at this time of his career. Unlike other footballers who would want to play till the later 30s or 40s, Toni Kroos have publicly said that he doesn't want to remain in the game till when he can't deliver quality football again.
I'm a Real Madrid fan and as such, I'll would've love to see Kroos play for few more seasons but since he wants to leave the stage now that the ovation is still high, we've got to respect his decision and allow him retire from football
