Cross: It's best to retire at the top

On May 22, Beijing time, the 34-year-old German midfielder Kroos explained on his social media why he announced his retirement.

Kroos: This has been one of the best seasons I've played and it was the right thing to do to leave at the top of my game so that when people talk about me, they remember me as I am now. After retiring from Real Madrid, I will play in the European Championship with the German national team, which is not in conflict, I will not choose to play for another club. I often wonder what I would do at home if I stayed in a hotel for three days when I was away from home. There was a time when I did not travel or stay in a hotel, but chose to spend some time at home, which made me feel a lot of happiness.
