Wait for it! Rudiger not considering Chelsea contract talks

Chelsea defender Toni Rudiger isn't in talks over a new contract.

Rudiger remains 100 per cent committed to Chelsea, but wants to assess all his options in January when he can sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club.

Staying at Chelsea remains one of those options.

Sky Sports News reported last month Chelsea would have to make him one of the highest paid players at the club to have a chance of keeping him.

Rudiger says he is “honoured" by reported interest from Bayern Munich - but “feels good" at Chelsea.

The Germany international also said he won't rush anything as he described his next decision as the “most important in my professional career".
