Real Madrid center back Antonio Rüdiger has reportedly agreed to a one-year contract extension, extending his stay at the Bernabéu until the end of the next season.
The 33-year-old, who was set to become a free agent this summer, seemed destined to be on his way out of the Spanish capital due to his age and recurring injury issues. It didn’t help matters that Real Madrid once again struggled defensively this season, prompting the club to once again turn to the transfer market for younger, stronger reinforcements at the back.
