Toni Kroos has fired a brutal comment at the Premier League's lack of European success despite huge transfer expenditure whilst also aiming a subtle dig at former Real Madrid teammate Casemiro.
The Premier League enjoyed a record-breaking summer of spending in the most recent transfer window. Of all the 20 Premier League clubs combined, they managed to spend £1.9bn throughout the window - a record amount for an entire season.
That spending dwarfs that of the other top five leagues across Europe, with clubs once again electing to invest heavily in their squads following the financial impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
