Kroos agrees new six-year Real Madrid deal

Kroos agrees new six-year Real Madrid deal

Real Madrid want to make Toni Kroos the highest-paid German player in the world, according to reports in the midfielder's home country.

The German pass-master's previous contract was set to run until 2020, but he has been rewarded for his consistent excellence with an extended deal.

Kroos, who won the 2016 Champions League with Los Blancos, had his contract extension confirmed on the club's website on Wednesday afternoon.

Kroos joined Real in 2014 for an initial £24million from Bayern Munich, where he worked with Guardiola for a season.

The 2014 FIFA World Cup victor has lifted one UEFA Champions League title, two UEFA Super Cups and the FIFA Club World Cup with the La Liga giants.

United were linked once again earlier this month and while there has been speculation over Kroos's alleged unhappiness in Spain that hasn't been borne out by the frequency of his selection.

Real Madrid have confirmed Toni Kroos' new deal at the club, announcing that the German worldwide has signed a contract until 2022 with the reigning European champions.

It has been claimed Kroos will pocket €20 million (R317 million) before tax annually at the Santiago Bernabeu, which will earn him a whopping €120 million (R1.9 billion) over the course of his new contract.
