Toni Kroos correct ESPN on his Madrid Academy

ESPN recently praised Toni Kroos for his transition from player to mentor, noting how the legendary midfielder  who won six Champions League titles and a World Cup medal continues to channel his trademark passion into coaching at the Real Madrid Academy.

However, Kroos was quick to set the record straight. In a brief but clear correction, he clarified that it’s actually the Toni Kroos Academy in Madrid, not Real Madrid’s youth setup, where he’s been dedicating his energy and expertise.

The distinction highlights Kroos’ next chapter shaping young talents under his own brand and vision. Even off the pitch, he’s proving that excellence and precision still define everything he does.
