Toni Kroos may now live away from the media spotlight, but his influence on football remains undeniable. The German midfielder left a lasting legacy at Real Madrid, where he played a fundamental role in one of the most successful periods in the club's history.

The Ancelotti family also played a major role in that era. Under Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid enjoyed considerable success, with his son Davide witnessing the team's achievements firsthand. In an interview with AS, Davide spoke highly of Kroos and explained the importance of the German midfielder to the team's playing style.

His comments quickly gained attention and eventually reached Kroos himself. The former Real Madrid midfielder shared Davide's words on his Instagram account just hours after they were published, adding a heart emoji as a gesture of appreciation.

“He was the master of the game. What a great description. He controlled the rhythm of the game, it was played the way he wanted. He was fundamental, and then he ran. Toni covered 11 kilometers per game, and he defended. I loved him when he played as a defensive midfielder. Although he preferred to play as an attacking midfielder, that way he left the dirty work to the defensive midfielder, whoever it was, Camavinga or Casemiro. For Real Madrid's dynamics, losing him has been very difficult…,” Davide admitted.
