"My wife? She allowed me to continue for another year (laughs)," Kroos told Marca.

"A little thank you to my wife, who told me 'just do what you want'. 

"That surprised me a bit because you don't want me to be at home more often? (Laughs)."

The German World Cup winner also added that he is still hungry for titles and has not been thinking about retiring.

"There are one or two negative examples, who simply could not leave football, and were no longer the player people have in their minds. I don't want that to happen to me", he added.

"I have the feeling last season went as well as my last nine in Madrid. Why wouldn't the next one go well? I still enjoy football and I'm hungry for titles."
