'He should hang up his boots now!' - Heynckes jokes Kroos should retire after Champions League win

The Real Madrid midfielder has now lifted the European Cup three times, as well as the World Cup once with Germany, at the age of 27

Former Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes has jokingly told Toni Kroos he might as well retire now after winning the Champions League for the third time in his career.

The Germany international was part of the Bayern team that won the treble under Heynckes in 2012-13, but whereas the Allianz Arena side have since failed to add another European title to their trophy cabinet, Kroos has lifted the trophy on another two occasions with Real Madrid.
