JAKARTA - Toni Kroos has been one of the keys to Real Madrid's revival since Zinedine Zidane returned to Santago Bernabeu in March 2019. The German midfielder has become an integral part of the team that recently won the La Liga title this season.
Launching MARCA, Tuesday, July 21, only Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquet have made more passes than former Bayern Munich players in La Liga this season. However, Kroos has better accuracy.
Kroos has completed 2,184 of his 2,336 passes, or incised a pass accuracy of 93.49 percent. Superior from Pique who pocketed 91.75 percent and Busquets with 89.66 percent.
In terms of direct goal contribution, Kroos has tore off opponents six times and provided nine assists for Los Blancos in 44 appearances in all competitions this season.
The German national team player is back together with Casemiro and Luka Modric in the Los Blancos midfield. They started together in nine of Real Madrid's last 11 La Liga games.
Only Casemiro has played more times than Kroos this season. The Brazilian had 3,991 minutes in total compared to Kroos on 3.479 minutes.
When he extended his contract at Madrid until 2023 in May 2019, a lot of fan criticism was directed at him. Now, Kroos has proven that doubts are grossly wrong.
