Manchester City are interested in a move for Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos in the next summer as the German’s contract runs out next year.
The Premier League champions are looking for a new midfielder to sign as Ilkay Gundogan’s contract is set to run out at the end of the season.
Gundogan is yet to commit his future to the club and there is doubt he will renew, with interest coming from abroad in the form of Barcelona.

Real Madrid are firmly committed on getting Kroos’ contract renewed and don’t want to lose him anytime soon, but they are waiting on the player.
They want the player to tell them how he feels mentally and physically before deciding to give him an extension on his contract.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola previously worked with Kroos at Bayern Munich in the 2013-14 season and the midfielder was full of compliments for the manager.

"Guardiola fought until the last day for me to stay at Bayern. If I have to choose a coach who is perfect for my game, it's Guardiola. I really enjoyed the year with him, he improved me a lot," the German said.
The two reuniting at the Etihad Stadium is a real possibility and it would work well in City’s favour to get them both back together.
