Kroos will be lacing up in Real Madrid colours for one last time when the 34-year-old German will take the field against Borussia Dortmund on June 2 for the Champions League final. It will be Madrid's bid to win their 15th CL Trophy and Kroos's 6th.

"Having a hard time writing these words. The football world is sad because a historic footballer is leaving. I am also very sad. Man, you are a legend of this sport and a legend of Real Madrid. It's truly been an honour to share Real Madrid's centre field with you. You have qualities that make you a unique and special footballer, and there will never be another Toni Kroos," wrote the Croatian on Instagram.
