Bayern Munich has
announced that Toni Kroos has completed his transfer to Real Madrid for an
undisclosed fee. The attacking midfielder had long been linked with a move to
the Champions League holders and he has now signed a contract with Madrid until
the summer of 2020.
Commenting on the deal Bayern
chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge echoed: "We
would like to thank Toni for his time at Bayern Munich. We enjoyed some great
successes together. We wish him and his family all the best in Madrid and at
Real."
Bayern were initially keen
to hold on to the 24-year-old, yet they put him up for sale after failing to
reach an agreement over a contract renewal.
Kross came through
the ranks of the Hansa Rostock youth academy, but joined Bayern at the age of
16. He made over 170 official appearances for Bayern since breaking into the
first team in September 2007. He also enjoyed a successful loan spell at Bayer
Leverkusen from January 2009 until the summer of 2010.-Chidblaq
