PEP GUARDIOLA SAYS there is a possibility he could lose Toni Kroos after the midfielder refused to rule out leaving Bayern Munich.
The Germany international has played an integral role in the European champions’ impressive first season under Guardiola so far.
However, Kroos has just 18 months remaining on his contract and the 24-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester United.
United boss David Moyes was at Borussia-Park to watch Bayern’s 2-0 win against Borussia Monchengladbach last Friday, sparking further speculation that the Premier League champions were preparing a bid for Kroos.
Former Barcelona coach Guardiola is eager to keep the player at the Allianz Arena, but knows there is a danger he could move on.
He is an important player,” Guardiola said. “But it can go fast in football. Here today, there tomorrow.”
Kroos has already turned down an offer of an extension from Bayern, and told Kicker-Sportmagazin on Tuesday that he would be “unable to rule anything out” with regard to his future.
“I am under contract with Bayern Munich. Actually, there are, (as) yet, no further talks scheduled, I will therefore fully focus on the second half of the season,” he added.
There is just no way this is happening…he’ s clearly angling for a better contract
Hope he just does not use the interest from Utd to force a better contract (like a certain Ronaldo)
It’s rather intriguing that Kroos would actually leave Bayern for Man Uited or other clubs. Unless despite a lot of wins for Bayern, things aren’t actually rosy with the manager and players due to the intensive training and rather unorthodox treatment provided by Guardiola, such as when he unceremoniously dropped Mandzukic for a recent game just for poor training. In my mind, that’s crazy because that’s one session, not a hundred he’s not given 100%. At least Moyes knows United have midfield issues, so if Kroos wants to come, he can come! I’d welcome it!
