Toni Kroos set for Real Madrid contract talks

German midfielder Toni Kroos will hold negotiations with Real Madrid over a contract extension next week. The World Cup winner had been linked with the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City this summer despite being content at the European champions.

The 26-year-old has become a key performer for the Spanish giants since joining from Bayern Munich in 2014.

According to Spanish source Marca, Los Blancos are keen on extending the player's stay beyond his existing deal which is due to expire at the end of 2019/20 season. Zinedine Zidane's side will propose a fresh six-year contract for the playmaker with an option for a further year.

Kroos, who seems to have adapted to life in the Spanish capital, has appeared in 101 outings for Real Madrid till date.
