Antonio Rudiger’s agent Saif Rubie told talkSPORT, via Marca: “Let me confirm this, live on air, the Real Madrid deal was the smallest deal on offer.”

“There was a club in England offering almost double the amount and a club in Europe doubling the amount. I’m not going to discuss the specifics. Everyone knows there was teams interested in this player. He was one of the best in the world.”

Rubie also revealed that Chelsea almost made no effort to keep the German at the club. He said: “What if I told you Chelsea, and the old regime, basically made next to no effort to keep the player.”

“At the time he was very happy to stay and potentially be the captain of the club. He was offered a contract that was half the amount Romelu Lukaku was earning. You are talking about trading in the margins.”
