It’s Friday afternoon, meaning it’s Don Balón time!
One of this week’s picks involves Toni Kroos, who could apparently be on his way to Manchester City, where he’d be teaming up with Pep Guardiola.
The Spaniard is said to want to make the most of José Mourinho distancing himself from the Germany international following the signing of Fred by ‘redoubling his efforts’ to get the Real Madrid star in his squad.
His love for the midfielder dates back to their time together at Bayern Munich, but the Bundesliga club were unable to convince him to stay back in 2014 when he chose to move to Spain.
Don Balón state Kroos is seriously considering a ‘change of air’ this summer, and while Mourinho’s offer to bring him to Manchester United was ‘tremendously enticing’, the opportunity to once again work under Pep Guardiola also falls under that category.
We’re not sure why Manchester United are still being mentioned here since Mourinho doesn’t want him anymore, as was written earlier on in the article, but it’s Don Balón, and we’ve pretty much given up trying to comprehend what goes through their heads.
