Real Madrid has been blessed in their midfield for many years, with several iconic names donning their white jersey. Toni Kroos is one such player who has not received much praise. The underrated German is one of the best passers of the ball the game has ever seen, aptly nicknamed the ‘German sniper’ by his fans.
There is even talk that he could return to action for Germany at the upcoming Euros. Kroos has been a constant presence in the midfield, winning everything in the last decade with them. There is no doubt that he is one of their legends, but his time at the club and in the sport may come to an end soon.
Isco pleads Toni Kroos to stay at Madrid
Toni Kroos has been phenomenal for Real Madrid once again this season, playing in 30 games and delivering consistent performances. He showcased his skills in yesterday’s derby game against Atletico Madrid, contributing to a dominant performance. Despite their efforts, they couldn’t secure all three points, as an extra-time winner from Marcos Llorente resulted in a 1-1 draw.
After the game, Toni Kroos posted some pictures of the game on his Instagram as usual, with the caption, “Proud of the team. We move on!” In the post Tony’s former teammate Isco decided to comment. Impressed by what he saw from Kroos, he commented that he wanted to see Kroos for more years, “Toni please… don’t back down … Let us enjoy you 2 or 3 more years.”

Currently at Real Betis, Isco, who was formerly with Real Madrid from 2013 to 2022, has rediscovered his best form at his new club. He has showcased impressive performances, including notable displays against teams like Barcelona. Having shared the pitch with Kroos in over 200 occasions, Isco recognizes the true capabilities and importance of the German legend. It’s a commendable gesture from the ex-Real Madrid player towards a club legend.
