Toni Kroos continues to say goodbye to Real Madrid, moving from tribute to tribute, speech to speech. His departure has stunned the white squad, from Florentino, who has dedicated some beautiful words to him, to the fans, who have requested him to reconsider his choice to leave Puerta del Sol. But no one can persuade the German to change his views.

Who did Toni Kroos give his phone number to?

He is clearly departing, and he has even let go since announcing his choice. If he has been cold as ice for ten years, he is suddenly revealing his Latin side.

The Madrid fans will remember how they departed Wembley Stadium, fists raised and pointing to the shield. His remarks at City Hall was significantly more animated than normal.

“I love you Madridistas, I promised you!” he shouted from the Puerta del Sol ball, before singing “how can I not love you!” and give thanks for “all these years, in which I have been very happy.” So relaxed was he that he ended up shouting for Rüdiger: “Come here crazyoooo!”

After showing his most unknown side on the balcony of the Community, at Cibeles he brought out his most sentimental side:

“Madridistas, thank you for everything. This is my home and it always will be,” said the now former Real Madrid player, before surprising Fede. “Who do you want to wear number 8 next season?” he asked the fans.

And he added: “The 8 is for this boy,” he said, pointing to an excited Valverde .

“You are a legend, Toni. Thank you for everything you have given to Real Madrid fans,” Valverde responded.
