Toni Kroos has been the key to Real's success in recent years.

The German midfielder needs absolutely no introduction to the football fans. Toni Kroos is certainly the best midfielder in the business at the moment. The midfield maestro has been in sensational form in the past few years for both club and country.

Kroos joined Real Madrid in 2014 from Bayern Munich, in what was the club's biggest mistake in the transfer market. The central midfielder has been instrumental to Real's back to back Champions League titles in the past couple of years.

The Madrid player has impressively won everything at club and country level for a player at the age of 28. His reading of the game, passing accuracy and positioning are simply commendable.

In Kroos, United would finally get a player who can provide their forwards a "Michael Carrick long-ball". Reports in England already claim that a swap deal for De Gea and Kroos is being mapped out at Old Trafford.

If in any way United manage to secure the signatures of the world-cup winner, they would be trumped to be the masters of the summer transfer market.
