Antonio Rudiger has admitted to deliberately winding up supporters in matches during his time at Chelsea. The 29-year-old joined Real Madrid in the summer as a free agent after his deal with Blues expired.
football.london understand that Rudiger passed on a new deal at Chelsea which would have made him the highest-paid defender in the club's history. The Germany international was reportedly demanding a large signing-on fee, along with agent fees too, effectively putting a new contract out of reach for the west Londoners.
As a result, he penned a four-year deal at the Santiago Bernabeu, drawing the curtains on a successful five-year spell in the Premier League. And, after a few months at his new club, Rudiger has spoken to German outlet Sport1 on his time at Chelsea.
