Toni Kroos He planned his life after football with a circle around July 14 on the calendar. That’s Sunday, at Berlin, the German midfielder is convinced that he will play his last game as a professional. Latest. The grand finale. In his structured German mind he thought of saying goodbye to football as he did in Real Madrid, won, raised the trophy of the European champion with his team, with the other team of his children, the one that does not allow discussion because it unites the family.
Kroos does not deviate from the routine designed for his final concentration, those days that have been exhausting for him recently, who spent a lot of time thinking what he was doing there if he had achieved everything in the world of football and his children grew up far away enjoying the same reality which is often seen only by elite athletes through their cell phones.
The German team repeated every ritual of the match, celebrating naturally on the field, hugging their children, their wives, their mothers, as if every match was a final, wanting to squeeze every moment . As Toni Kroos thought. Spending time in concentration to leave a legacy to the youth of respect for the profession but also talking about everything else, what’s really important, what they represent as players.
Toni Kroos has no intention that the game in Spain will be his last game as a footballer, although this Spanish team represents him emotionally. He notices the enormous talent among the youth of the national team, he sees in Rodri Hernández and Pedri smart footballers capable of changing the order of their teams, he foresees an environment very similar to his ideal life, if where relationships are healthy, where He plays without losing respect, where the coach is a person before he becomes a coach, a team away from drama, conflict, bad words, a team that admires good players who like him.
Toni Kroos thinks he has three games left, three games before owning every day of his life, before arranging his agenda without having to plan it because no one decides when he gets up or how he spends his weekend. Kroos thinks there are three more games before saying goodbye by kissing another trophy, another one, to be placed next to the world champion, in six Champions Leagues, five in Real Madrid and one in Bayern. Toni Kroos thinks he won’t say goodbye to football against Spain. La Roja is against him.
