Toni Kroos has already made his feelings known on the Premier League amid rumours of a move to England.
Over the last few years, Kroos has been regarded as one of the best midfielders in world football after playing a key part in Real Madrid’s midfield.
However, at the age of 33, the German’s minutes have been limited this season due to the likes of Federico Valverde, Jude Bellingham and Eduardo Camavinga.
As a result, with his contract due to expire at the end of the 23/24 season, Kroos has been linked with a move to the Premier League.

According to Spanish news outlet Defensa Central, Manchester City are keen on signing Kroos from Madrid when his contract comes to an end.
On the back of the latest rumours, Kroos’ past comments about the Premier League have resurfaced.
Back in September 2022, Kroos spoke about the English top flight on the OMR podcast.
He said: “TV money has been significantly higher in England for years and yet it hasn't resulted in English teams winning everything.

“Thank God not all players look only at salary but also at winning many titles and to grow more.”
Those comments came after former Madrid teammate Casemiro left Los Blancos for Manchester United in a deal worth a reported £70 million.
Earlier this season, Kroos was quizzed about his future with Madrid.

As per The Sun, he said: “What I have always said and is something that has not changed, is that I will not move clubs.
“I will always stay here, I will retire here, the only thing I don't know is when.”
