Kroos is expected to play his last game for Real Madrid in the Champions League final against Dortmund this weekend.

Speaking about Kroos, Modric said (via @MadridXtra):

“Ballon d’Or? Someone of Real Madrid surely (laughs). My favourites are Vinicius, Bellingham, and Kroos.

“I would like Toni to win it, he is my friend.”
