🔥 Last Minutes: Toni Kroos also spoke about the owner of the number 10 uniform that Luka Modric will leave after retirement in Real Madrid: “Arda Güler deserves that jersey most, nobody else can wear it” 👇👇 👇👇
Real Madrid legend Toni Kroos, a striking statement that creates a shock effect in the football world, announced the young Turkish star Arda Güler as the right successor of Luka Modric’s iconic 10 jersey. In these days when the 2018 Ballon D’Or award owner Modric’s bright career approached the end of his bright career, speculation of who would inherit his legendary jersey has increased. Kroos, who is of great importance in Santiago Bernabeu, made his attitude in the last part of his podcast, Einfach Mal Luppen, and led to intense debate between fans and experts.
Kroos, who left professional football in 2024 after a decade full of trophies in Real Madrid, continued to be a name that makes his voice heard in sports. The support for Güler is not only an ordinary view, but a bold expression about the future of the club. The German midfielder, known for his dot shooting rusts and tactical brightness, believes that Güler has the unique mixture of creativity, vision and cold -bloodedness to carry the weight of the 10th jersey, which is identified with legends such as Ferenc Puskas, Zinedine Zidane and Modric.
Güler, who joined Real Madrid from Fenerbahçe in the summer of 2023, is seen as an extraordinary talent with a tremendous potential. Despite the limited game time due to injuries and harsh competition in Madrid’s stars, the 19 -year -old player showed moments of brightness. In particular, their performances at La Liga and Copa Del Rey were compared with some of the best of the game. Kroos, who played with Güler before he retired, emphasized the young player’s ability to control and create chances of the game’s tempo; These qualities reflect Modric’s moderation in the midfield.
The importance of Kroos’s explanation cannot be underestimated. Modric, who is currently 39 years old, has been the heart of Real Madrid’s midfield for more than a decade and directed the game with unique elegance. The number 10 jersey is not only a number, but also a symbol of leadership and perfection. Kroos’s choice of Güler as the only player who can fill these shoes tells a lot about the potential of the young Turk. “Arda has a special side, Kro Kroos said in Podcast. “He sees the game differently and this is rare. Number 10 is not only about skill, but about responsibility.
This support comes at a critical turning point for Güler, who faces difficulties in achieving a regular first 11 position in the management of coach Carlo Ancelotti. Despite the important goals such as GETAFE in April 2025, Güler was usually left in the shadow by settled stars such as Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde. However, Ancelotti had previously given clues about a bright future for guler and remembered an unforgettable facetime meeting that he convinced the young player to join Madrid by promising a role in the post -Modric period. Ancelotti is reported to Guler that “Modric and Kroos can play you in the midfield when they get too old ve and this prophecy seems to become a reality.
Kroos’ comments also reintegrated the discussions on Real Madrid’s midfield transition. As Kroos retired and Modric’s career ended, the club was looking for players who would be the fixture of the next generation. Valverde inherits Kroos’s uniform number 8, while the number 10 has a different legacy; A legacy that requires creativity and ability. Guler’s ability to serve as a wing player and midfielder makes him a versatile candidate who can adapt to Ancelotti’s tactical demands.
The football world took notes this bold claim of Kroos. Social media platforms, especially X, are shaken by the reactions of fans. Many acknowledge that Guler’s technical skill and fearless attitude made it a natural harmony for number 10. However, others argue that the pressure of such a prestigious number can be too much for a player who is still trying to find his feet at the elite level. Nevertheless, Kroos’s support raised Guler’s status and put him under the spotlights as the potential future star of Real Madrid.
As the 2025-26 season progresses, all eyes will be on the prove that Guler can meet Kroos’s high expectations. As Modric’s retirement approaches, the jersey number 10 is heating, and Guler seems to have the support of one of Madrid’s biggest players. It is not yet clear whether Real Madrid can consolidate its place in the history of the history, but Toni Kroos has made it clear for now: Arda Guler has been chosen.
