With Kroos' decision to retire after participating with the German national team in the European Championship taking place this summer, fans will remember him for his outstanding performance and magical passes, alongside his peculiar habit of being optimistic about old shoes.
The Spanish sports newspaper "Marca" revealed details about the last pair of shoes Kroos will wear with Real Madrid during the Champions League final on Saturday. The report noted that the 34-year-old player will wear white shoes, as always, but "with golden details," adding that the shoes will feature the names of his wife, his three children, and even his two dogs.
Additionally, the final's date and location (Wembley Stadium) are expected to be printed on Kroos' shoes. "Marca" highlighted that "the interesting part of the shoes is that the names of his children are handwritten. Everything indicates that his children wrote their names in pen on the shoes." The newspaper explained that Kroos "wants to immortalize this match forever." Kroos is known for his fondness for some of his old shoes, which he refuses to change and wears in crucial matches throughout his career.
