Romano: Chelsea and Rudiger are far from close to reaching a deal and Real Madrid want to get rid of him

According to the well-known transfer journalist Romano, Rudiger has been negotiating a contract extension with Chelsea for several months, but the two sides are still far from reaching an agreement.

Rudiger's contract with Chelsea expires next summer and he has yet to renew it, meaning that in more than ten days he will be able to negotiate a contract with a foreign club and make a free transfer next summer.

Romano said Rudiger had been in talks with Chelsea for a months of contract extensions, but the two sides were still far from reaching a deal and Real Madrid wanted to waive the German centre-back.

It has been reported that Bayern are also interested in Rudiger, but Romano said bayern do not intend to meet Rudiger's salary requirements, and for now, Spurs are not in the pursuit.
