Thiago Motta urges Paris Saint-Germain to sign "exceptional" Toni Kroos

Thiago Motta has revealed that he would like to see Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos at Paris Saint-Germain next season.

Kroos is coveted by a number of European football's elite clubs after playing a part in Los Blancos' three successive Champions League triumphs.

The 28-year-old is unlikely to be sold on by Madrid this summer, but Motta - now employed in a coaching position at PSG following his recent retirement - has urged the French giants to make an approach.

"Personally, I would like to see Toni Kroos at PSG," he told Le Parisien. "He can also play in a more advanced position, but in the style that suits PSG, he is exceptional.

"He is a player I admire a lot and for a long time. He can play the three positions in midfield and in particular in front of the defence."

Kroos, under contract with Madrid until 2022, featured 40 times in all competitions for Madrid in the 2017-18 campaign.
