Antonio Rudiger has been linked with a move away from Real Madrid, and Chelsea have been mentioned as a potential destination.

According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Real Madrid are prepared to sell Antonio Rudiger for just €10 million this month. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea are prepared to complete a cut-price move to sign the experienced centre-back.

The Blues need more quality and depth in the defensive unit, and Rudiger would be an excellent addition. The 32-year-old knows the club well, and he could settle quickly and make an immediate impact if the West Londoners further their interest.​

The opportunity to play in the Premier League at this stage of his career could be an exciting challenge for the player. The German international knows the Premier League well, and he could be tempted to return.

Chelsea are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them will be exciting for the player. The veteran defender is heading towards the twilight stages of his career, and this could be the final opportunity for him to compete at the highest level.

Chelsea could use Rudiger

Chelsea need to tighten up defensively, and signing their former player would be a wise decision. The 32-year-old knows the club well and he could help them improve. Apart from his quality as a central defender, Rudiger’s leadership skills and winning experience could prove to be invaluable for the Chelsea dressing room.

Furthermore, the experienced centre-back is available for a nominal price worth €10 million this month. The deal could be worth it for the London club. Chelsea have recently switched managers, and they will look to bounce back strongly during the second half of the campaign. Signing the right players will help them improve and finish strongly this season.

The West London outfit will be aiming for UEFA Champions League qualification, and they need to improve defensively. The German defender could make a big difference for them at the back. Chelsea have the resources to get the deal across the line, and it remains to be seen whether they are prepared to accept the demands from the Spanish club.
