Any potential replacement will need to not only match Kroos' abilities but also adapt seamlessly to the demands of Madrid's playing style and the high expectations of the club's supporters.

The report also adds that this will be a difficult move for Los Blancos to pull off.

While an exit this summer is unlikely, Real Madrid believe there may be a chance in the summer of 2025, as the chance to sign the best defensive midfielder in Europe would be too good to turn down.
