Antonio Rudiger left Chelsea last summer to sign up for Real Madrid.

The German international left Chelsea as a free agent, and attracted massive interest from some of Europe’s top sides, including PSG.

Rudiger has revealed he chose Real Madrid because he wanted to win things.

The Germany international recalled: “There were a lot of rumours.

“You know, as soon as there was something with PSG, they sent me a message. But like I said, that’s not what I was looking for. In the end, it has nothing to do with PSG.

“It’s a very big club. But next door, Real Madrid, Real Madrid…

“I realised I could go to Real Madrid after lifting the Champions League (with Chelsea in 2021). I knew I could go there. At that moment, I understood. You want to be on the winning side, you have to go to Real Madrid.”
