Juventus and Bayern Munich have both joined the race to sign Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger, according to a report.
The Germany international is yet to commit his future to the Champions League holders beyond 2022 and is being tipped to leave as a free agent at the end of the current campaign.
Thomas Tuchel remains hopeful that the club will find a solution with regards to Rudiger's contract, but Chelsea could supposedly cash in on the centre-back amid his compatriot's wishes.
Tottenham Hotspur, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain have all been linked with a move, but according to Calciomercato, Juventus and Bayern Munich are also keeping a close eye on the situation.
Bayern are facing a similar situation with Niklas Sule, who has entered the final year of his deal with the Bavarian giants and is being tipped to complete a free transfer to Chelsea as an alternative to Jules Kounde.
Rudiger - who remains a key player under Tuchel - has played every minute in the 2021-22 Premier League season so far and was named in the starting lineup for Sunday's clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
