Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger’s representatives are in “constant dialogue” with Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, with currently no talks taking place over a new contract at Stamford Bridge.
Discussions between the centre-back’s representatives and Chelsea had taken place in January but, as yet, no new, improved official offer has been tabled.
Rudiger’s contract is up in the summer and he says he is happy at the club, but insists “there are also other people who have to make decisions”.
Sky Sports News has now been told there have been no talks with Chelsea over a new deal for over a month.
Rudiger’s decision on where he plays next season will be primarily motivated by the football project.
Rudiger is unlikely to make a decision on his future until the summer for two reasons. Firstly, he has too much respect and love for Chelsea and doesn’t want it to distract from an important end to the season.
Secondly, he wants to weigh up all his options – both clubs in Europe and the Premier League. Signing a new deal at Chelsea has not been ruled out and we have previously reported Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick is a long term admirer of the player.
