Toni Kroos wants to follow in Gerard Piqué’s footsteps and set up his own private ‘Kings League’. The Real Madrid footballer launched the Icons League with a famous German ‘youtuber’ called Elias Nerlich.
At the moment, few details are known about the characteristics and format of the championship, but what is known is that it will start in the summer of 2024. The Real Madrid footballer and the influencer announced the creation of the competition through their social networks and some gamers and internet celebrities weren’t slow to echo the news.
“Classic football, the way I play and love, will continue to exist, inspiring and captivating people all over the world,” said Kroos, convinced that other formats can also have a place.
“There is a large number of followers who are also interested in a different format of football,” Aleman said in the press release. “We are betting on a faster, more varied, more action-packed and more eventful game where unexpected twists and turns can suddenly take place. For a football with more goals and entertainment. And that exactly what we will offer ” said the Real Madrid footballer.
According to Bild newspaper, more details about the competition and its participants will be known in the coming weeks.
