Fans spot what Toni Kroos did after being booed by fans in Saudi Arabia yet again

Fans from Saudi Arabia loudly jeered Real Madrid star Toni Kroos during the team’s victory against Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final.

In the most recent El Clasico match, Los Blancos defeated the opposition 4-1, with Vinicius Jr. scoring an amazing hat-trick in the first half.

Even while the Brazilian made headlines, Kroos’ persistent jeers remained a hot topic of conversation.

When Kroos entered the game on Wednesday against Atletico Madrid with just over 20 minutes left, he was jeered at every move.

When he stumbled while trying to make a cross-field pass, there were also applause.

“I don’t understand it, I don’t think Kroos understood it either,” Carlo Ancelotti said in response to the question during his press conference.

The reason for the unfavourable reaction seems to be Kroos’ earlier remarks regarding players joining the Saudi Pro League, calling Gabri Veiga’s move to Al Ahli “embarrassing” and asserting that players’ motivation to join was financial.

On Sunday, the German had the same experience. This time he kicked off the match, but as he left the pitch, he could hear the jeers.

During the post-match festivities, an unmoved Kroos raised his hand and made a waving motion in response to taunts.

After the game, though, viewers also noted another play by Kroos. To commemorate their remarkable accomplishment, the players wore ‘Campeones’ shirts with the number of titles on the back, signifying that Real had won the Super Cup 13 times.

Arabic language was also printed at the bottom of these jerseys. But Kroos didn’t seem to wear them, even though the rest of Real Madrid’s team did.

A picture doing the rounds on social media shows the former Bayern Munich man sporting his shirt from the game, with the No.8 on the back.

Although Kroos’s former teammates are currently competing in Saudi Arabia, it seems that he has a problem with players who are in the “middle” of their careers.

Like Cristiano Ronaldo, who made the decision to do so near the conclusion of his career, each person must make that decision for themselves.

“But it becomes very difficult when players, who are in the middle of their career and have the quality to play for the best clubs in Europe, decide to make those changes” .
