Kroos celebrates his 30th birthday in style Real Madrid Currently in excellent form

Toni Kroos turns 30 on Saturday and it has seen him join the club with the rest of Real Madrid's players in their thirties.

The list also includes some of Los Blancos' most important cogs, including Sergio Ramos (33), Marcelo (31), Luka Modric (34), Karim Benzema (32) and Gareth Bale (30).

Kroos enters his third decade while going through one of his best periods as a Real Madrid player.

In fact, the German is one of his team's top performers so far this season and he has featured in 21 of their 24 games in 2019/20.

Since Madrid's opener back in August, he has scored three goals and assisted another four in all competitions, following a largely underwhelming 2018/19 campaign.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Luka Modric won the Ballon d'Or prize in their thirties, while Ramos has become Madrid's leader in the last few years, and Benzema is in the best form in front of goal in his career.

Meanwhile, the Real Madrid captain was included, along with Marcelo, in the FIFA FIFPro World 11 as they have both put some extraordinary performances in recent seasons.
