REAL MADRID have reportedly reached an agreement with Chelsea star Antonio Rudiger.
Antonio Rudiger contract expires in June and he has rejected numerous offers to stay in Chelsea.
Rudiger snubbed a package worth more than £200,000 a week which would have made him the highest paid defender in Chelsea’s 117 year history.
It is also believed The German International priced himself out of staying by demanding a hefty signing on fee plus a big sum for his agent.
“The situation is that he wants to leave the club. He has said this to me personally. We have given everything – me and the club – but we can’t fight anymore”
Without sanctions we would have at least been able to continue the fight to keep him, but we are powerless. This is his decision.”
