Breaking news: Rudiger decides to leave Chelsea as he chose between Manchester United and Real Madrid which team he will join. Here is what he said .

 Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger 

has decided to put an end to his five-year

 association with the Blues in the summer

, according to The Athletic.




Rudiger has been a key player for the 


Stamford Bridge outfit under Thomas 


Tuchel. The centre-back has made 71 


appearances for the club since the German


 tactician's arrival last year.



The Germany international also played 


an important role on Chelsea's road to 


UEFA Champions League glory last season


. However, there are serious doubts about


 Rudiger's future at the club as he is 


nearing the final two months of his contract.



Reports this week claimed that Rudiger 


will make a decision regarding his future


 by the end of the month. It has now emerged


 that the 29-year-old has made up his 


mind to leave Chelsea at the end  


of the season.



Rudiger will thus join another club on 


a free transfer in the summer transfer 


window. While it remains to be seen 


where the future lies for the defender, 


he will decide who he will join next week, 


according to the aforementioned source.



The German's determination to make a 


decision regarding his future this month 


appears to have dealt a blow to the Blues' 


hopes of retaining his services. Chelsea 


are not in a position to negotiate a new 


deal with any player as Roman Abramovich


 has been sanctioned and the club is currently


 up for sale.



Chelsea first approached Rudiger with a 


contract offer in August. However, the 


defender viewed the proposal as an insult


 and reportedly wanted £225,000 per week


 to sign a new deal.



The two parties then resumed talks over 


a fresh contract four months later, as per


 the report. Things appeared to be heading


 in a positive direction as they got closer


 to agreeing a new deal.



Tuchel's side approached Rudiger with 


an improved offer in February if the report


 is to be believed. The deal would have 


seen him extend his stay at Stamford


 Bridge for another four years, while 


being one of the best-paid players at the club.



However, uncertainty around the club's 


ownership brought negotiations to a standstill


. It appears that Rudiger is in no mood to 


wait until Chelsea are taken over by 


the new owners.



Real Madrid keen on Chelsea's

 Rudiger


Rudiger has been free to reach a pre-contract


 agreement with clubs outside England since


 January. Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain


 (PSG), Juventus and Bayern Munich 


have reportedly been in touch with the 


defender over a potential transfer.



The Blues' Premier League rivals Manchester


 United have also been credited with an 


interest in the defender. However, Real 


Madrid could be the favorites to land 


the German on a free transfer.



Los Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti is a 


huge fan of Rudiger and is said to have 


asked the club to sign him. Italian journalist


 Gianluca Di Marzio even claimed on 


Friday that the La Liga giants are close to 


striking a deal with the defender.

  Jules Koundé will be  ‘sacrificed’  by  Sevilla this summer as Chelsea look  to sign him again after missing out last year. That’s  according to La Colina de Nervion ,  who say Sevilla’s poor performances in  Europe this season  ‘will force them to  sell’  a player this summer, and Koundé  is the likely candidate. He flirted with the Premier League and  Chelsea last summer, and this year will  be no different once he has finished  the campaign in Spain. Sevilla made a huge effort to keep him  last summer in the hope there would  be a big achievement this season, but  that is likely to be restrained to a third straight  Champions League qualification, a success  in itself but less than what the club  were hoping for. They were disappointing in the Champions  League and Europa League, and those  poor performances mean they  ‘need  to sell in the summer transfer wi...

  Chelsea won’t be an easy  opposition with the last three  meetings ending in draws, but  many United stars are playing  for their futures. With a huge rebuild expected this  summer, a number of players have  a point to prove to incoming head  coach Erik ten Hag. Formation:  3-4-2-1 Predicted Line-up: David de Gea has been one of the  stand-out performers for United this  campaign. He came up with a couple  of crucial saves against the Gunners , but was not sufficient to pick up  points. There are no doubts over  his position between the sticks. Ralf Rangnick may try to match  the Blues’ three-at-the-back formation,  something that has been done by  several clubs against them. In  this case, Harry Maguire could  be reinstated into the heart of the  defence alongside Raphael  Varane and Victor Lindelof. Diogo Dalot started nervously  against the Gunners with a couple  of de...
