Toni Kroos has not hesitated to praise Rodri and his signing for Real Madrid. Toni Kroos is one of those personalities in the world of football who, when he speaks, everyone should listen, especially because the wisdom with which he usually played, now speaks in front of the microphones.
This explains why everyone wanted to hear his opinion on Rodri , a player who is expected to fill the void left by the German in Real Madrid ‘s midfield .
In the last few hours, alleged statements from the legendary number ‘8’ have spread like wildfire on social media, as in these he hinted that he was thinking about returning to professional football to play alongside the Madrid native.
” If Rodri joins Real Madrid, I might have to come out of retirement just to play alongside him. Maybe he’ll teach me a few things about becoming a complete midfielder ,” Toni Kroos initially stated before adding that ” of all the names linked to José Mourinho’s project, Rodri is the one I’d most like to see. Imagine Rodri and Bernardo Silva controlling Madrid’s midfield. At that point, you’re bringing a bit of Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City to the Bernabéu . “
Furthermore, regarding the asking price, the German reportedly explained that ” people will talk about the transfer fee, but some players are simply priceless. A Ballon d’Or winner, a World Cup winner, and one of the best midfielders of this generation—you don’t negotiate much for that kind of quality .”
A ‘fake news’ that Toni Kroos likes
The problem is that these statements never came from Toni Kroos’s mouth , or at least that’s what the former footballer himself indicated, even though different profiles on social media attribute these words to him.
The Greifswald native responded to an Instagram post with ” I never said this… But I like it anyway .”
This simple statement from Toni Kroos seeks to refute those who attribute these words to him, although he seems to have no problem with it and even likes what was said, which many have valued as a ‘blessing’ from the German to Rodri ‘s arrival at Real Madrid.
The German, who is always very careful when talking about the white club, knows that the current ’16’ of Manchester City is the piece that José Mourinho needs for the midfield and, although many compare them, the reality is that the captain of Spain is different from the former player, with similar characteristics, but with a superlative importance to make a team play.
Waiting for Rodri’s signing
This makes it clear that Toni Kroos is also waiting for Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez to achieve the long-awaited signing of Rodri , who is currently on vacation and taking advantage of the days to recover from a minor surgery he underwent after the World Cup, but which would not prevent him at any time from starting the season with Real Madrid, provided that his arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium is finalized.
