Toni Kroos Biography
Roland and Birgit Kroos welcomed Oni Kroos into the world on January 4, 1990, in Greifswald, East Germany.

Career
- Kroos made his dream transfer to Bayern Munich at the age of 16, when he joined their youth setup. He was highly regarded by the club’s coaching staff and was promoted to Bayern’s senior squad in less than a year. Meanwhile, Kroos had already started to drop out of school owing to training needs. His hard effort and commitment, however, were rewarded on September 26th, when the now 17-year-old made his debut for the Bavarians in the 2007-08 season. Within 18 minutes after coming on as a replacement, Kroos helped Miroslav Klose twice in a 5-0 hammering of opponents Energie Cottbus.
- His UEFA Cup debut was particularly noteworthy, as Kroos, who came in as a substitute against Red Star Belgrade, first set up Klose before scoring the game-winning goal in stoppage time. He went on to participate in 20 games for the team that season.
- Toni Kroos struggled to get going in the next season. On the last day of the January transfer window, he was loaned out to Bayer Leverkusen for 18 months in order to get much-needed first-team playing experience. Kroos established himself as a first-team regular with Leverkusen, appearing in 48 games and scoring 10 goals.
- Kroos returned to Munich in 2010 and formed an effective midfield combination with fellow countryman Bastian Schweinsteiger. He was a key figure in Bayern’s treble-winning season of 2012-13, when they won the Bundesliga, UEFA Champions League, and DFB-Pokal. He maintained his form the next season, leading Real Madrid to make a bid for him.
- Real Madrid signed Kroos in July 2014 for an unknown amount rumored to be around €30 million. He later formed an effective midfield tandem with Croatian Luka Modric. Kroos won his second Champions League championship in the 2015-16 season, under Zinedine Zidane’s management, becoming the first German player to achieve so with two separate teams. He continued to play frequently for the club as they won another Champions League trophy as well as the La Liga championship the following season.
