Real Madrid legend Toni Kroos spoke about his decision to retire and shared who found it hardest to accept his decision.
Toni Kroos"The truth is that it wasn’t hard for my wife because it was a mutual decision. It wasn’t a surprise for my family because we spent months talking about it. My wife was glad I would be home more. It was harder to tell my older son because I knew how much he loved watching me on television and at the stadium. He went through a lot; he has been to four Champions League finals, and he will remember that for the rest of his life.
It was very hard for me to tell Carlo because he expected me to stay, and because we had and still have a very good relationship. He was my first coach at Real, and it was not easy to tell him that. It was not an easy moment for me because I was trying to choose a good time for the conversation. I was lucky that we won La Liga by a large margin, and I said "now!",' — quotes Kroos Marca.
