Man Utd and Chelsea approach agent with £40m offers for German star

TONI KROOS has been approached by Manchester United and Chelsea, according to reports.

 

Toni Kroos reportedly told his agent to get him a move away from Real Madrid

 

Spanish TV show El Chiringuito reported last month the midfielder had told his agent Volker Struth to start looking for possible deals.

And according to Fichajes both Premier League clubs have held talks with the World Cup winner's agent, offering a bumper contract to lure him away from The Bernabeu.

 

It's claimed the duo are preparing bids in the region of £40million and will offer him a personal deal worth in excess of £4.5m a year.

Although, the sacking of Benitez and arrival of Zinedine Zidane has thrown a spanner in the works and could scupper any chance United and Chelsea had of signing the German.

 

The reports adds the likelihood of Kroos leaving Real has now 'decreased considerably' and Zidane has already begun reinstating Kroos in the squad, starting him in the 5-0 win over Deportivo La Coruna.

The German international has made 17 La Liga appearances for Real this season and has six assists to his name, but is yet to score a single goal.
