Ahead of Kylian Mbappe’s anticipated move to Real Madrid, Toni Kroos has made a surprising claim, asserting that the club does not require the services of the PSG superstar. Despite reports suggesting Mbappe is on the verge of joining Los Blancos, Kroos remained tight-lipped regarding any insider information on the potential transfer, emphasizing the importance of focusing on winning trophies rather than speculating about new signings.
During a pre-match press conference, Kroos deflected questions about Mbappe’s transfer, highlighting Madrid’s existing strong squad. He stated, “If even he doesn’t know, how can I know? The important thing is to win things. It would be nice for Madrid, but I think we already have a good team.”
Mbappe’s flirtation with Real Madrid is not new, as he previously came close to signing for the club in 2022 before opting to extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain. As for Kroos himself, his future at Madrid remains uncertain, with his current contract set to expire at the end of the season. Despite the looming uncertainty, Kroos continues to represent the German national team, recently securing a victory against Mbappe’s France.
As speculation swirls around Mbappe’s potential move to Madrid, Kroos’ assertion adds an intriguing dimension to the transfer saga, suggesting that the Spanish giants may prioritize other areas of the squad over signing the French sensation.
