Toni Kroos
was the man of the day in
Leipzig
, ahead of the first leg of the
Champions
League round of 16 . A somewhat bumpy preview. The
Real Madrid
bus had a
small collision
with a car during the journey from Erfurt airport to Leipzig. An incident without personal consequences in which the only thing to regret was the broken
mirror
on the vehicle of a local citizen, who got lost when he saw the Madrid expedition, according to
Bild
, and slightly collided with the bus. Both vehicles continued on their way without stopping.
"On the A4 motorway, between
Eichelborn and Nohra
, a white Toyota was hit by the Madrid team bus. The driver of the car overlooked the bus while changing lanes and the exterior mirror broke. The
Toyota Avensis
was damaged by value of about 3,000 euros. The extent of the damage suffered by the Real bus is still unclear. After a brief stop, fortunately all those involved continued without suffering any accident," the German newspaper explained.
As for the German midfielder, who had not spoken at a press conference all season,
he decided to take a step forward
in his homeland while the German team awaits his return for the Euro Cup (he retired in July 2021) and the Madrid fans It remains in suspense for its renewal. At
34 years old
, his contract ends in June and he has admitted that he has not decided what he is going to do. "I always tell you the truth, and
the truth is that I don't know
. I'm thinking and I haven't decided anything yet," he confessed in the press room.
"It depends on many things, it depends on how I feel,
it depends on my personal plans
... I have always said that I want to finish my career at a very high level, a year ago we had the same discussion...
I enjoy the moment
and it is going so well which leaves me a little more time, I want to make the right decision," he added.
Asked about the
German team
, he acknowledged that "
there is a possibility
and we will see what comes out in the end, just like with the renewal, at the moment I don't know." "My head surprises me more than my body, because I started very young at this professional level at Bayern and I thought I was
going to last 15 years
. My head still surprises me more than my body, because I have few problems with my body, it's more head, but now it's fine," he concluded, laughing.
Finally, he responded to the
boos
he received from the
Saudi public
during the Spanish Super Cup: "For me (the whistles) have been confirmation that I have done the right thing."
