Real Madrid midfielder, Toni Kroos, has revealed how ‘close’ he came to joining Manchester United in the past under former Red Devils manager David Moyes’ regime.

Man United was interested in a deal to sign Kroos from Bayern Munich during the 2013/14 season.

But a potential transfer collapsed following David Moyes’ sacking at Man United and Kroos instead joined Real Madrid in 2014.
