Superblue 6,372 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Never happening. Long term contract, almost certainly will end up being in the shout for future captain of the club. There are some 'pillars' we need to be building the long term future of the club around and he's arguably the number one of them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,279 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 You could tell how much they respected him during and after the match. They probably would indeed love to get their hands on him as would any other big club. Thankfully there’s absolutely zero to worry about. He’ll be here for his whole career. Rüdiger on the other hand… 😬 Wouldn’t be surprised at all to see him choose Real Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rüdiger on the other hand… 😬 Wouldn’t be surprised at all to see him choose Real Madrid. I still believe staying is his preference. If he can get a good contract from us, which to be fair he has fully justified in the last 18 months, then I don't see any need for him to move when he's settled and part of a successful team challenging for trophies with a manager and fans that adore him. You have to believe that the prospective owners whether through Marina and the Chelsea board or directly with Rudiger's agent have held some form of discussions or at least confirmed their intention to keep him and tie him down to a new deal when sanctions are lifted. If I was one of them, it would certainly be something I would definitely have attempted to appease the situation as otherwise we're losing one of the best defenders in world football right now for free.

But is he having a Werner or Sancho like season where he puts up insane stats in Germany and then looks mediocre when he steps up to a big club? We should certainly be looking at him. Who knows what the new owners' stance will be on existing transfer targets but surely the current regime has already made decisions on Nkunku having taken TT's opinion into account.

chelsea_4_eva 1,186 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 TT is vital for the Rudiger situation. Hopefully the manager player bond can help find middle ground where both parties are satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rudiger or Azpilicueta also gone we need at least 2 new CBs as well. Milan Škriniar plus one of these Bremer Nico Schlotterbeck or if a fail on Škriniar as well as de Ligt then both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superblue 6,372 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 The loss of Rudiger will be massive if it happens. Not just losing one of our best players and clearly one of the leaders of our dressing room, but we're going to have to replace him and we already have other areas of the squad which need addressing. No idea what our budget might be but it won't stretch across too many players unless we have a couple of potential gems ready to unearth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea_4_eva 1,186 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) We will need to get another CB with his intensity. Also we definitely need to ship quite a handful of players off to help with funds, we just have too many players to buy. Barkley, Lukaku, Sarr, RLC (although he intends to stay), Kepa, one of Puli, Ziyech,Werner. It is really difficult to plan your next buys when you dont know who the owner is..

Rice still having 2+1 year left basically make it impossible to sign him this summer. Edited April 23, 2022 by Blues Forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
