Official: Toni Kroos to Real Madrid

Because Illara has scrubbed every chance he's gotten tbh

I think Illarra will eventually come good. Carlo seems to like him so it's cool.

And you'll have your team and your back ups. Alonso-Illarra Modric-Khedira Kroos-Isco. Any combination of them is good. But Kroos will play in current Di maria's position, never in Alonso's

I agree with Super_Floren.

Seems like the club wants to cash in on a player who wants out. Not a bad idea all things considered.

nah, if like abc.es reported he wants 6 mil like kroos, then we should absolutely pay him. "cashing out" would be profoundly dumb. If it's a lot more then ok, do it, we would understand.

Dont just turn around and sign James, so the love of god, that's the only thing that pisses me off more.

If Real Madrid sell Di Maria.

There's no player in the market who can replicate what he does for Real Madrid. selling him would be a suicide.

Toni Kroos moments ago to Globoesporte: "I met my two dreams; winning the World Cup & playing for Real Madrid."

Welcome home Champion

it's a fake quote going wild on twitter

Damn deceived by twatter yet again

dont worry got deceived for 2 minutes, i posted the same thing here but quickly deleted it

Apparently the quotes were true. He said them to German radio station ZDF. El Pais, ABC and Cope also reporting it.

they just copied it off twitter, social medias and all. the standards of journalism are so low nowadays.

it doesnt even matter since there are 99% chances the deal is done. Might be announced at the same time we sell Di Maria to PSG.

Toni Kroos confirms Madrid move.

“We’ve finished the World Cup in the best way possible. Now I’m going to Madrid, so that’s two dreams achieved," Kroos told UOL.

yup.

I thought I was the only one who saw him play.

Agent Pep!
He's truly doing it!

well what can I say.

The world's best midfielder is leaving us to join Real Madrid.

Good times.

You have Gotze, the world cup winner

Yeah nick, we'll be ok.

Götze will come good for us.

Different thing though.

Can't say I'm not devastated about this.

Now all my hope lies in Thiago's knee.

Why is the fee for him is so low ? 20-25 millions euros ?

Last year on his contract if I remember correctly.

Last year of his contract. He would be available for free next summer.

contract runs out. 20-25 is probably not the correct range though.

we pay 25 mil for kroos and arsenal pay 29 mil for khedira, both last year of contract? i hope we give that extra cash to charity

Khedira's all time great performance against Brazil is probably what convinced Arsene to splash the cash.

Franck Ribéry - €12 million
Mario Götze - €12 million
Philippe Lahm - €10 million
Bastian Schweinsteiger - €10 million
Thomas Müller - €8 million
Thiago Alcântara - €8 million
Manuel Neuer - €8 million
Arjen Robben - €7 million
David Alaba - €7 million
Javi Martínez - €6 million
Jêróme Boateng - €6 million
Daniel van Buyten - €5 million
Mario Mandzukic - €5 million
Rafinha - €5 million
Toni Kroos - €4.5 million
Claudio Pizarro - €4.5 million
Dante - €3.5 million
Holger Badstuber - €3.5 million
Xherdan Shaqiri - €2.5 million
