Toni Kroos is in the twilight of his career. The German midfielder recently announced his sporting retirement after the 2024 Euro. The 34-year-old had two crucial dates left before hanging up his boots: winning a 6th Champions League with Real Madrid and winning the Euro with his national team.

On Saturday, 1 June, he has already validated one of his two objectives. Against Borussia Dortmund, the Merengues won, not without difficulty, at Wembley thanks to goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Junior (2-0). This is the fifteenth C1 in the club's history and the 7th personal for Kroos (He won one with Bayern Munich in 2013, already against Dortmund).
Considered one of the best midfielders of his generation, he ends his Madrid adventure and his club career in the most beautiful way. After the game, the German international gave his number 8 shirt to Fede Valverde, who represents the future of the Casa Blanca. Now he can turn his attention to Euro 2024 with host nation Germany.
Toni Kroos and his wife met when they were teenagers
The Nationalmannschaft are aiming to win a fourth European championship, but above all to put their recent disappointing campaigns behind them. Eliminated in the group stages of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, and in the Round of 16 at Euro 2020, Germany are out for revenge, and will be counting on one of their key players: Toni Kroos. After that, he'll retire with the feeling of having achieved everything in his career. The man with 33 professional trophies to his name, including a world title in 2014, has won almost everything. The only thing missing is the Euro. He will then be able to devote himself to his family life. He is the father of three children: Leon, Amelie and Fin.
Since 2015, the experienced German player has been married to Jessica Farber. The 36-year-old, two years older than Toni, met her husband when she was a teenager, long before he became a football star. Their relationship began early on, but it wasn't until 2010 that the couple decided to make it official, when the footballer was just starting his career.
Jessica is very discreet on social media
Although she now looks after her three children full-time, the mother used to work in the tourism sector in her country. Like many other 'WAGS', she had to sacrifice her professional life to follow the Real Madrid player. On her Instagram account, Jessica Kroos sometimes posts photos of her partner and children. Family life seems very important to the couple, who live simply and discreetly, far from the glitz and glamour of some football superstars.
Jessica is not very active on her social networks, even though she has a following of over 200,000. In short, Jessica Farber is a discreet but essential figure in the life of Toni Kroos. She devotes most of her time to her family and chooses to stay out of the media spotlight. She was, however, present at her husband's last match at the Santiago Bernabeu, as well as at the Champions League final at Wembley.
