Toni Kroos said his final farewell to football in a post on his social networks. The German has hung up his boots after being knocked out by Spain in the quarter-finals of the European Championship.
It’s over. No more Toni Kroos. On Friday, when Anthony Taylor blew the final whistle against Spain, the midfielder knew it was all over. In these less than 48 hours he has had time to say goodbye to the national team and now to football in general.
The former Real Madrid player has posted a message on his social networks in which he says goodbye to what he calls “a beautiful game”, which he thanks for having made him enjoy it so much.
In the message, Kroos also thanked all his teammates, coaches, clubs and agents, but especially his family; his brother Felix, his parents, his children and his wife.
This is the full message from Kroos:
So that’s it. But before I take a break and at least try to realize what happened over the last 17 years I don’t want to miss the opportunity to say thank you to everyone accepting me how and who I am. Thanks to all my fans around the world for your unconditional support. Thanks to all my clubs and coaches for believing in me. Thanks to all my teammates for making me feel welcome anytime. Thanks to my friends for always being honest with me no matter how successful I became. Thanks to my agents who became friends. Thanks to my parents for the best possible preparation to realise my dream. Thanks to my brother @felixkroos23 for always being my number one fan. Thanks to my kids for being my biggest motivation to bring the best out of me – nothing better to see your Kids being proud of daddy. Thanks to my beautiful wife @jessica_kroos for being you. Never change. This success wouldn‘t have been possible without you. It’s ours! And last but not least: Thank you Football! You beautiful game. And… you‘re welcome! Over and out.
