Real Madrid defender Toni Rudiger has reaffirmed hopes that teammate Toni Kroos will end his Germany exile.

Rudiger wants Kroos to join him for Germany's Euros campaign this summer.

He told Kicker: "It's at home, we want to have the best players there, and at this moment I see Toni as one of the best German players, because he is also one of the best Real Madrid players at the moment.

"We are talking about a player who has 10 years at Real Madrid and he continues to inspire great respect. That has to be earned, for me it is an incredible feat.

"He will make a decision for himself ... but many share my opinion."
