After Toni Kroos’s retirement, Real Madrid is still thinking about new signings that could strengthen the midfield and compensate for the absence of the German legend. Florentino Perez and the rest of the managers have already begun working on signing a replacement for the German player.
It is noteworthy that Toni Kroos announced his retirement from football permanently after the end of last season and the end of the German national team’s journey in Euro 2024 and bidding farewell to the tournament after losing to Spain by two goals to one.
According to information received from the Spanish newspaper Marca, one of the names that is still mentioned more than others as Kroos’ replacement is the name of Adrien Rabiot, who is still a free player.
The French player’s contract with Juventus has expired, and the Italian team announced today in a statement thanking the player and wishing him success in his next step.
The newspaper added that Adrien Rabiot was linked with Real Madrid several weeks ago. Various media outlets indicate that Real Madrid considers the signing of the Frenchman as a good transfer opportunity, as he will arrive at no cost.
The club has been closely monitoring his situation for weeks and was only considering his arrival as a free player after his contract with Juventus was not renewed, and now Real Madrid is facing a great scenario to sign Rabiot.
The newspaper indicated that Adrien Rabiot will arrive to cover the absence of Toni Kroos in the midfield until Real Madrid finds an alternative that is much more suited to what the club needs and wants.
The newspaper concluded: The arrival of the French player will be conditional on the departure of Dani Ceballos. However, at Real Madrid they believe that each deal is a completely independent issue.
