You didn’t think Germany ace Toni Kroos was actually done at the international level, did you?
The Real Madrid midfielder looks set to return to Die Mannschaft this summer for the 2024 Euros.
The 34-year-old announced his return on social media channel X on Thursday. “Let’s do it!” he wrote.
Toni Kroos is in the mood for summer football
He made a follow-up post on Instagram, confirming his place in the squad. “People, short and painless: I will play for Germany again in March,” he posted
“Why? Because I was asked by the federal coach, I’m in the mood and I’m sure that with the team at the European Championship, much more is possible than most believe right now!”
How could Kroos say no to Julian Nagelsmann‘s request? Even Real Madrid extended Kroos’ contract beyond this season. In form, Kroos has helped La Liga giants retain their primacy ahead of the table.
2014 World Cup winner Toni Kroos hasn’t dressed up for Germany since announcing his retirement after Euro 2020. England eliminated Germany in the round of 16. He expects to make his international return against France on March 23.
“He’s back,” Real Madrid teammate Jude Bellingham replied on Instagram. And it feels like he never left.
