Real Madrid to surprise everyone with Toni Kroos

As concerns grow among Real Madrid fans due to the club’s numerous injury cases, there is a major development involving Toni Kroos that could provide some relief.

After a stellar career, Toni Kroos surprised many by announcing his retirement at the end of last season, despite being at the peak of his game. He had just completed a successful season, helping Real Madrid win both La Liga and the Champions League. However, Kroos had always intended to retire early while still in top form at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid, however, did not fully accept his decision. The club made two attempts to extend his contract, but Kroos stood firm. Though stepping away from the pitch, he has no plans to leave football entirely, and recently it was reported that he is pursuing coaching qualifications. Still, Real Madrid is not ready to let him go just yet and is preparing an unexpected move.

Toni Kroos to Join Carlo Ancelotti’s Staff?

According to Central Defensa, Real Madrid is exploring the possibility of bringing Kroos back to the club, not as a player, but to join Carlo Ancelotti’s technical staff. His recent return to the Santiago Bernabéu during the match against Villarreal might have been a sign of things to come.

The club sees great potential in Kroos and believes his deep understanding of football, combined with his vast experience, could significantly benefit the team. Kroos knows his former teammates well and could offer something fresh to Ancelotti’s staff. Real Madrid is particularly keen on having him mentor the club’s young midfielders, such as Eduardo Camavinga, Aurélien Tchouaméni, Jude Bellingham, Arda Güler, and Federico Valverde, to help accelerate their development.

Since his retirement, Kroos’ absence has been felt at Real Madrid. Despite a strong attack featuring Mbappé, Vinícius Jr., and Rodrygo, the team has struggled to consistently produce brilliant performances. Many observers believe that the current squad lacks a player like Kroos, who could bridge the gap between defense and attack. His vision, passing accuracy, and leadership are seen as qualities that Real Madrid’s current midfielders are missing.

Kroos’ return in a coaching capacity could help address these gaps and restore some balance to the team.
