Report: Real Madrid not in Toni Kroos race

Real Madrid are reportedly not interested in signing Bayern Munich midfielder Toni Kroos, despite suggestions of a possible move at the end of the season.

It had recently been claimed that Los Blancos were interested in signing the German international before the World Cup.

However, according to The Express, head coach Carlo Ancelotti has been put off by Bayern's asking price, which is believed to be in the region of £35m.

Manchester United have been strongly linked with a move for the midfielder, whose contract talks with his current club have stalled in recent weeks.
