Chelsea remain in talks with Antonio Rudiger over a new deal beyond next summer

Chelsea remain in talks with star central defender Antonio Rudiger over a new deal beyond the next summer’s transfer window with the Germany international propping up on the radar of other clubs.

European heavyweights Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are understood to be keeping tabs on the 28-year-old who is in line to run down his contract with the Stamford Bridge outfit heading into the next summer.

Thomas Tuchel’s camp has been unable to strike down an agreement with Rudiger who is keen on being offered a massive bump in his wages to pen a new long-term deal at the club and rebuff interest from elsewhere in his services.

Fabrizio Romano has claimed that Rudiger is happy with Tuchel and Chelsea and could be persuaded into extending his stay with the west Londoners with Chelsea hard at work to renew his contract amid talks with the defender’s agents.

Tuchel has made Rudiger a key part of his first-team plans for Chelsea ever since his appointment to the top job earlier this year and the player has emerged as a top performer for the Blues at the back.
