da realsbet: According to reports from Sky Sports, Chelsea have agreed a transfer deal with Roma over the signing of promising centre-back Antonio Rudiger – although they’re yet to thrash out personal terms.
da marjack bet: The 24-year-old has established himself as one of the best defenders in Serie A and was part of the Germany squad that lifted the Confederations Cup title in Russia after beating Chile last weekend – boasting 17 caps in total for Die Mannshaft.

But the versatile defender, who has featured as a right-back, a left-back and a centre-half throughout his career, isn’t exactly a household name in England just yet – although he’s been linked with a move to the Premier League for some time – so here’s a look at his form for Giallorossi for last season.
As you can see, Rudiger weighed in heavily with aerial duels won and clearances last season, as you’d expect of any centre-back, whilst committing just one error – impressive for a young defender still learning his trade. But perhaps what’s most important for Chelsea is his quality on the ball, considering he’ll be part of a back three at Stamford Bridge.
Rudiger – who Transfermarkt value at £21.25million – is known for his ability in possession and in addition to an impressive passing accuracy of 83%, also laid on one created chance per two appearances in Serie A last season.
