Kroos: If the Bundesliga can't be completed then no league can

Toni Kroos believes the short-term future of football depends on what happens in Germany.

The Bundesliga is set to be the first major European league to resume during the coronavirus pandemic, with LaLiga Santander not due to restart until June.

"Here, everyone has the impression that, if the Germans can't play their league, then no one will be able to continue," Kroos told German media.

"Germany had the best (lowest) numbers of infections and deaths from coronavirus.

"If they can't finish the Bundesliga, who can do it?

"I'm sure that we're all going to follow what happens with the German league."

Real Madrid returned to training this week for the first time in two months.

"We were training at home for a long time with personalised routines," Kroos said.

"It was like a long holiday, like in summer, knowing that everything was going to come back at some point.

"Now we've started back up again with a pre-season of four or five weeks."
