Former Real Madrid player Toni Kroos believes that Barcelona cannot currently win the UEFA Champions League title, while expressing his admiration for the Catalan team's style of play.

Kroos said: "Barcelona is very happy with their victory in the Spanish Super Cup, but now comes the Champions League, where Barcelona will face top-level opponents, and I do not think they will win any international title."

He added: "I still hold the same opinion I had last season. At least from my point of view, Barcelona will not win the Champions League."

He continued: "If you are tired and do not change your style of play, it becomes very clear how exposed you are."

He went on: "Barcelona plays one of the most attractive styles of football in Europe, perhaps the most attractive, but they also take a lot of risks."

He concluded: "On a bad day from Pedri, Lamine Yamal, or Raphinha, any team can hurt them and eliminate them from the Champions League."
