With another LaLiga title under their belts, Madrid are into the Champions League final after they overcame Kroos' former club Bayern Munich in the last four.
Borussia Dortmund stand in Los Blan🌞cos' way of a record-extending 15th European crown.
🌞And Kroos, who has come out of international retirement in order to boost Germany's Euro 2024 chances, has played a key role in Madrid's success this term.
In fact, he has been so good, that Ancelotti cannot see why the Ballon d'O♍r would not be a possibility.
"The Ballon d'Or for Kroos? Well, anything can happen," Ancelotti told repꦺorters after Madrid🌳 hammered Alaves 5-0 on Tuesday.
"If he wins ♏the Champions League and the Euro. I think he can do a double. Germany can win with Kroos."
Kroos has played 46 times in all compe🔥titions for Madrid this season, with only Joselu, Rodrygo and Federico ꧟Valverde making more appearances.
The 34-year-old leads Madrid's squad for chances created (85), while he is second for✅ assists (nine) and expected assists (7.6).
He has𒊎 attempted 3,257 passes, over 500 more than any of his club-mates, completing 3,083 of them (💖94.6 per cent).
However, his immediate future is not yet certain, tho🅠ugh Ancelotti is not concerned.
"At the moment, we are not worrie🔜d abo🦂ut what he is going to do, neither am I, nor the club, nor Toni," the Italian added.
"Until June 1, this is a secondary i💜ssue. We are now thinking about wꦐinning the Champions League."
Madrid now want tꦉo make the most of their rema𒁏ining LaLiga games as they prepare for their showdown with BVB.
"These games are important to maintain the rhythm, the good dynamics, the motivation and the good play. There are two weeks left. Now we'll rest for🎀 a few days and next w🌃eek we'll do some physical work. In the second week we will do tactical work," Ancelotti said.
"For me as a coach, it's the best season. The team has🎃 been fantastic, we deservedly won LaLiga. We're on a cloud, but we have to keep going because we haven't played the mos🐷t important game yet.
&qu𝔍ot;This team has a lot of talent. Very young people with a lot of quality. It has the opportunity to m𓃲ark an era in the future, given the value of the youngsters we have."
