Toni Kroos: I'm joining Real Madrid

Germany World Cup winner Toni Kroos has announced he's joining Real Madrid. When celebrating the 1-0 win against Argentina on Sunday night, Bayern Munich midfielder Kroos confirmed that he would be linking up with the La Liga giants in a "dream" move.

"We've finished the World Cup in the best way possible. Now I'm going to Madrid, so that's two dreams achieved," Kroos told UOL.

Kroos is expected to be handed a £160,000-a-week deal at the Bernabeu as Bayern sell for around £20million.

Kroos has agreed a five-year deal with Carlo Ancelotti's Champions League winners.
