Toni Kroos has already started developing projects he will focus on after ending his playing career.
The decision to retire at the end of this season and after participating in the European Championship in Germany was well thought out by Toni Kroos. The experienced midfielder has prepared well for his farewell from professional football, as the 34-year-old German will not be idle.
Kroos has registered three trademarks. He will open his own football academy, set to launch on the outskirts of Madrid. Additionally, the former Bayern player will continue hosting his podcast, which he has been doing for four years now, recording it with his brother Felix Kroos, who also played professional football.
Furthermore, Kroos will sell products under his own brand, including boots, shirts, shin guards, gloves, and more.
During the last World Cup, Kroos worked as a pundit for a paid German television channel, keeping this option open for the future.
Thus, despite retiring from his playing career, Toni Kroos will remain involved in football, splitting his time between Spain and Germany. For now, however, his plans do not include starting a coaching career.
