In other news, Chelsea defender, Antonio Rudiger has refused to renew his contract with the Blues.
Naija News learnt that the German professional footballer has agreed to join Serie A side, Juventus on a four-year deal.
Rudiger’s contract with Chelsea will expire at the end of the current campaign and Thomas Tuchel’s side wouldn’t offer him an extension because of the UK government’s sanctions placed on the West London club owner, Roman Abramovich.
Before the sanction, Rudiger has reportedly been offered a mouthwatering £400,000-a-week deal to leave Chelsea.
Naija News understands the likes of Juventus, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are all hunting for the 28-year-old.
