According to reports, Antonio Rudiger and Chelsea have reached a stalemate with contract renewal negotiations. The German centre-half expects a substantial pay rise, but Chelsea are only intent on meeting him halfway.
The situation has created an opportunity for other European giants to keep tabs on the Chelsea star's contract proceedings while waiting for the January transfer window. German outlet Bild via The Mirror reported that Bayern Munich are willing to offer Ruidger £200,000-a-week to make the move to Germany.
Former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit has urged the Blues to renew Antonio Rudiger's contract no matter what it takes. The 28-year old has been a mainstay of the Chelsea team under Thomas Tuchel. In his interview with bookmakers.co.uk, he explained:
The former French international also compared Rudiger to "crazy" defenders like Arsenal legend Martin Keown:
Although contract issues may put the star at odds with Chelsea, Rudiger claims he's enjoying life at Stamford Bridge. Discussing the contract speculations, he said:

I don't say give him the money . As a club it's important to negotiate , if we accept every player will ask for the same . I think Chelsea should be negotiate more with him and propose a wage good for both

paying diffenders alot of money when there are cheap autonatives you will find yourself in Barcelona shoes too . you don't have to dance to a tune of a diffender like you don't have the academy and cheap ones around.
We are not Barca

its cheaper to pay him what he wants than to buy a replacement for 80m after losing him for free

I’m 100% backing Chelsea to not do something that will bring embarrassment to the team. Soon other players will start demanding like him. Players are there watching so the precedent must be set now to avoid overpaying players at the detriment of the club going broke like Barcelona(sorry for the example). If Rudiger cannot compromise and except the club’s offer then he can go after all it’s going to hurt loosing a good player of his stature but it’s also a situation that can be healed

Pay a 28 year old 200k what a joke 175k at best we should go higher than that only Bayern has an interest in doin that if he goes and not get proper game time it’s his problem but I wish him the best of luck

It’s not you paying him out of your pocket fam so hush it and try to understand what’s going on
I can clearly see what’s goin on a guy that hasn’t properly started since tuchel came and had a good season won champs and super cup and wants a pay rise I think that explains it

You are really blind just like others. Rudiger is right.. All players contribute to the performance of the team yet they appreciate Middle fieldrs and Attackers than Defenders who make sure we do not get knocked....
Who said so? Please read with understanding

Still don't know why people only appreciate attacking players because they score goals but overlooked those players that block goals from opponents to keep the winning. Just give him because he deserves it.

no player is bigger than the club, it's what the board want will stand
Brute, common sense is your enemy. If Lukaku can be paid 200k so what bad if Rudiger also demand for 200k? Meanwhile the is not even your🙄

Don’t be rude bro. You think if everyone tell the club what they deserve, you think anyone will accept what they’re being paid. Chelsea is not an overpaying club when it comes to players wage. And I’m just saying the club should not give in to the player’s demand if don’t want to because it might lead to others doing the same. I think they should just find a negotiable figure to agree to. And if Rudiger is so adamant that he be paid what he wants, then he can leave.

Nonsense, you just poured down rubbish. So you think he wasn't deserved what he's asking for?
