Juventus chief Pavel Nedved has described Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger as "great", but has played down talk linking the German with a move to the Italian club at the end of the season.
The 29-year-old centre-back has been in imperious form for the Blues this season, but looks set to leave the club in the summer with his contract now in its final few months. Thomas Tuchel, when speaking recently about Rudiger's situation at the club, conceded that it could end with him or Andreas Christensen, whose deal also expires at the end of the season, leaving.
Tuchel said: "In the end, there’s a club policy that we all need to follow and that also as a manager I can absolutely understand. There are always two, three, four sides to these kind of situations. It is not only about player and club, it’s the coach, sporting situations, agents, families, there are lot of things involved.
