a Swedish crack to finally replace Kroos?

It's a departure that weighs very heavily since last summer at Real Madrid. The Merengue club must indeed deal with the retirement of Toni Kroos, the German international midfielder who has decided to hang up his boots, who has created a real void in the midfield. Despite the presence of Camavinga, Tchouaméni, Valverde, Modric, Ceballos and other Bellingham, the profile of a midfield metronome has clearly been missing since the start of the season.

Carlo Ancelotti, at the time of his departure, had few illusions. “Replacing a player like Toni Kroos is almost impossible. There is no player with these characteristics on the transfer market. We will therefore have to replace him differently,” estimated the Italian coach at the time of his departure. Which does not prevent the Merengue club from having some ideas for the future.

Real Madrid like Hugo Larsson a lot

And in particular that of a Swedish crack who would be tracked very closely. According to information from Sky Germany, Real Madrid is one of the clubs most interested in welcoming Eintracht Frankfurt's rising star Hugo Larsson. The 20-year-old midfielder, already an indisputable starter in the midfield of the German club, was already followed by Real before his departure from Molde, in 2023, for Frankfurt. Interest is therefore only growing even if the competition promises to be tough, with Manchester United and many other European clubs.
