German defender Antonio Rudiger is taking his time as he weighs up potential transfer options.

The contract of the defender with Chelsea comes to an end at the climax of the season. However, there has been no reports of an pre-contract deal with any European side.

The rumours of Antonio Rudiger being a free agent has spread allover Europe like wildfire. Hence, a lot of teams have expressed interest.

Team’s currently interested in Rudiger's services

So far, the likes of Real Madrid, Juventus and Parsi-Saint-Germain have all signalled interest in Rudiger.

On their part, Chelsea have not given up hope that they can convince the German. Rudiger is said to have made a request of over 200,000 euros a week deal.

However, Chelsea have refused as they believe he should be paid lesser. Both sides keep struggling to get to an agreement before summer.

Worries evolve over Chelsea's available defenders

Antonio Rudiger is not the only defender to have contact renewal issues at Chelsea.

The likes of Ceaser Azpilicueta and Christensen also have their contracts climaxing at the end of the season.

Summary

That being said, we expect the Stamford bridge giants to do something about their defensive structures sooner. Or stand the risk of losing a great deal of the team.
