Revealed: The shocking release clause in the contract of this Man Utd and Chelsea target
REAL MADRID agreed a £233million release clause in Toni Kroos’ contract, according to reports.
Kroos has attracted the interest of both Man Utd and Chelsea
The 26-year-old arrived at the Bernabeu in 2014 from Bayern Munich and has already racked up 81 appearances for the Spanish club.
And Spanish sources claim Manchester United and Chelsea who are both made efforts to sign the German in January.
But while Madrid resisted attempts to lure the midfielder away, Football Leaks have now revealed that they could be left with no choice in the matter.
But the chances of either club paying over £200m for the World Cup winner with Germany are virtually non-existent.
According to another Football Leaks document Real paid Bayern a total of £19.3m for Kroos.
