Real Madrid are on the verge of renewing Toni Kroos’ contract for another year. The German midfielder is set to extend his stay at Santiago Bernabeu beyond a decade.
Real Madrid To Extend Contract of Key Playmaker

Kroos was already among the best midfielders in Europe when he decided to join Real Madrid in 2014. In the last two years before his exit from Bayern Munich, he claimed a historic treble with the Bavarians and won the World Cup with Germany.

Moving to Slain was a fresh start for Kroos, who found himself at the centre of one of Real Madrid’s best-ever squads. He formed an iconic partnership with Luka Modric, who had joined Los Blancos two years earlier.
Together, the midfield pair have won 21 trophies, including four Champions League titles. Both players are now spending the final months of their respective contracts at Santiago Bernabeu.
Modric’s future is unclear amid reported interest from Saudi Arabia. However, the club have already made up their mind on extending Kroos’ deal.
New Update From Fabrizio Romano
Both Real Madrid and the player have remained silent on his contract situation in recent weeks. However, Los Blancos have reportedly been busy negotiating with their star midfielder behind the scenes.
