Chelsea centre-back Antonio Rudiger says that his family "feel great" in London amid the speculation surrounding his future.

Antonio Rudiger has said that his family "feel great" in London, as the speculation surrounding the Chelsea centre-back's future continues to gather pace.

The Germany international has entered the final six months of his contract with the Blues, meaning that he is able to hold talks with foreign clubs over a free transfer at the end of the season.

Chelsea are allegedly finding it difficult to meet Rudiger's demands, with Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Juventus all believed to be keeping a close eye on the situation.

However, Rudiger has hinted that he could remain at Stamford Bridge, with his family settled in London.

"Like always, I'm fully committed to the cause. Talks are between my side and the club, and that's everything you need to know," Rudiger told Sky Sports News.

"You have to think about your family. My kids were born here in London so that tells you that my family feel great here. The rest is up to other people to make decisions and then we will see if we come together or not."

The 28-year-old has again been a key player for Chelsea during the 2021-22 campaign, making 30 appearances in all competitions, contributing three goals and four assists in the process.
