Antonio Rudiger agrees new Real Madrid contract

Antonio Rudiger is set to continue his Real Madrid career after accepting the club’s offer of a contract extension, according to reports from Spain.

The German defender had initially hoped for a two-year renewal but ultimately agreed to Madrid’s long-standing policy of offering shorter one-year deals to senior players.

Rudiger’s decision ensures he will remain at the Santiago Bernabeu for at least another season, extending his stay into the 2026-27 campaign.

Since joining from Chelsea in 2022, the 31-year-old has become one of the most important figures in Los Blancos’ defence.

Despite attracting interest from abroad, including a lucrative proposal from Saudi Arabia, Rudiger chose to remain with Real Madrid as he still believes he can achieve more success with the Spanish giants.

The agreement effectively ends speculation surrounding his future and confirms his commitment to the 15-time European champions for the foreseeable future.
