Official: Toni Kroos renews with Real Madrid until 2024
Following the announcement and presentation of Joselu as a new signing on Tuesday, Real Madrid have greeted fans with more good news as they have officially confirmed the contract renewal of midfield legend Toni Kroos.
The German international’s contract with Los Blancos was set to expire on June 30. However, the two parties had always been on continuing their partnership beyond the summer for at least one more year.
An agreement between the player and the club had been in place for a while now, but an official announcement had been pending. Now, though, the Spanish capital club have taken care of that by confirming the extension of the former German international.
“Real Madrid C. F. and Toni Kroos have agreed a contract extension for the player, who remains tied to the club until 30 June 2024,” the statement from the club reads.
Kroos joined Real Madrid from Bayern Munich in 2014, right after helping Germany win the FIFA World Cup.
The 33-year-old soon established himself as a permanent fixture in the middle of the park at the Santiago Bernabeu and has continued to be so for nine years.
During his time at the club, Kroos has made over 400 appearances for the Merengues, winning 20 titles – four Champions League, five Club World Cups, four European Super Cups, three La Liga titles, a Copa del Rey, and three Spanish Super Cups.
Kroos will now remain at Real Madrid for one more year, with the midfielder understood to have rejected a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia to continue at the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid very happy with future star Endrick, eagerly awaiting his arrival in 2024 – Romano
Real Madrid’s attacking unit has been crippled by the loss of Karim Benzema earlier in the summer, which was followed by the loss of Vinicius Jr due to injury.
Although Vinicius has returned, there is much left to be desired from the Madrid frontline as we progress through to the season.
Real Madrid, though, are waiting on the arrival of Endrick. The young Brazilian is set to join the Real Madrid squad in the summer of 2024 when he turns 18.
Real Madrid impressed by Endrick
Endrick has already started his preparation for his pending move to Santiago Bernabeu, having performed exceptionally well in his native Brazil this year.
The youngster is constantly working on his game, in order to further improve himself as an attacker. It has left Real Madrid quite happy and eager for his arrival, reports Fabrizio Romano.
The journalist claims that Real Madrid have been keeping close tabs on everything Endrick has been doing, on and off the pitch, at Palmeiras.
And they have received very good reports on the 17-year-old, with the club impressed by how he is putting efforts to improve himself both performance-wise and in other facets.
Despite there being some question marks over his performances, the teenage forward is starting to showcase his potential, having scored five goals in five starts for Palmeiras.
Endrick also learning new languages
Endrick is not only just working on his performance. In fact, the Brazilian is also learning other languages in order to quickly settle into life in Spain.
The youngster can speak Portuguese, but he may have to master Spanish during his time at Santiago Bernabeu.
As mentioned earlier, Endrick can already speak Portuguese, which should go a long way in helping him team up with fellow Brazilians Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo.
Even Eder Militao can speak Portuguese, which should make it easier for Endrick to adapt to life in Spain, at least for the next year or so.
