Antonio Rudiger, set aside under the era Frank Lampard, has taken real revenge since the appointment of Thomas Tuchel. He clearly became steadfast in his starting XI and even won the Champions League last year by being a major player in the coronation of Chelsea. Lately it’s Rio Ferdinand who praised the German defender.
“Since Tuchel arrived I think he was arguably the best central defender, Dias was close but the effect Rüdiger had on his team was immense.”, words that will surely flatter the German international.
The 28-year-old’s contract ends next June and the player is not expected to extend with Chelsea. He would like to offer himself a new challenge after winning the most beautiful European competition.
