decision is near
Given his expiring contract at Chelsea FC and his strong development at Stamford Bridge, there is hardly a top club that has not been linked to Antonio Rudiger since the start of the season. However, one name keeps coming up last fall and again now: Real Madrid. In the meantime, the “royal” are said to have withdrawn somewhat given the high salary demands of the 29-year-old defender. However, Rüdiger is now ready to move away from his demand a little, reports the “mark“. That’s why Real coach Carlo Ancelotti submitted a request to the club’s management to sign the German national player.

The reason for Rüdiger’s rethinking of salary is the fact that no other club – neither FC Barcelona nor FC Bayern, PSG or Juventus – was willing to offer 12 million euros gross. Chelsea, in turn, cannot offer the ex-Stuttgarter an extension due to the sanctions against the still owner Roman Abramovich. This would only be possible after the club had been sold and those measures had been lifted.
With Dembélé, Kessié & Ginter: Most valuable professionals with contracts ending in 2022
With a market value of €35m, Ruediger is one of the five most valuable professionals whose contracts are ending and who have not yet signed a new working paper with another club. Ancelotti, according to “Marca”, is basically satisfied with his central defenders David Alaba (29), Éder Militão (24) and Nacho Fernández (32), but hopes for even more flexibility with a commitment from the Chelsea pro. Alaba could then move to the left side, where Ferland Mendy (26), who was actually set, is often injured. The contract of captain Marcelo (33), who was also recently injured, is also currently running out.
