Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola has decided to target Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos during the upcoming summer transfer window.
Guardiola tried to strengthen his midfield in the last Mercato by signing Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, but the player chose to move to Real Madrid, dealing a blow to the Spanish coach.
German newspapers confirmed through British media to “The Hard Tackle” website that Manchester City wants to include Kroos for free following the end of his contract in the summer of 2024.

The English club aspires to take advantage of the uncertainty in the 33-year-old’s future and his failure to sign a new contract with the Merengue yet.
It is not expected that the task will be difficult for City to convince Kroos if he wants to leave Real Madrid, due to the good relationship between the German star and Pep Guardiola due to their work together at Bayern Munich during the 2013/2014 season.
The relationship between Kroos and Guardiola was not good all along, but the Catalan coach came out on the most appropriate occasion to praise Kroos, and the Real Madrid star did the same thing towards him.
It is noteworthy that Kroos was recently linked with a move to the Saudi League, a move that the player may carefully consider if he decides to end his journey at the Santiago Bernabeu next summer.
