Toni Kroos eyes Champions League success with Real Madrid CF

Published on

Real Madrid new signing Toni Kroos has set himself a new target of helping the Spanish giants successfully defend their Champions League title.   Kroos, 24, was unveiled as the first high-profile Los Blancos summer signing on Thursday after completing a six-year move from Bayern Munich to the Bernabeu.   “I just want to say I’m extremely proud to be here,” the World Cup winner said at his official unveiling.   “I could not imagine a more amazing moment than being here with the fans, and I’d like to thank the club for giving me this opportunity to be here.   “They’ve given me the possibility to play for his incredible club, in my opinion the most important club in the world.     “I want to also thank Bayern Munich for giving me the chance to become a football player at a top club.   “I feel as if I know what it’s like at Real Madrid, I know it’s necessary to win things and it’s a great stimulus for me to try and win things at this club.”   The Germany international said he was desperate to help coach Carlo Ancelotti and his new team-mates become the first club to successfully defend the Champions League title under its current format.   “I won the Champions League with Bayern Munich in 2013, Real Madrid won last season. My big objective is to win it again with this club,” he added.
