I have a feeling he will end up in Madrid. In the highlights he looks a bit top heavy (offensive minded) so perhaps at Barcelona he would be groomed for one of those AML/AMR slots. Pace doesn't look fantastic though.
I get your point though and don't disagree. Madrid can't seem to find a slot for Brahim Diaz, nor Odegaard before, and this guy looks to have that kind of profile.
Rudiger !!!
##
Having previously been linked with Andres Christiansen and Cesar Azpilicueta, 'transfer insider' Dean Jones claims Barca are now interested in Antonio Rudiger as well.
Why not buy whole Chelsea and make it a farm team for Barca? Abramovich is selling. Easy business.
Rudiger is almost too good for us, and would want a team that competes for the biggest titles right now, not in 2-3 years.
If we land Haaland (by saving on spending money on defense; still huge if but the recent 7-8 games are a great selling point about Barca IMO), Rudiger's head should be turned in our direction. Because that means we are in contention (not as favorites but among the top 3-4 teams) come next season.
Two or three signings let's say it includes rudiger and we are back competing on all fronts.
also when the fuck did rudiger get so hyped?
lampard didnt rate him at all and was ready to be sold even 4th choice at times
his rating on fifa has always been between 81-83 and never really anything special.
Is his reported world class salary demands all based on one good tuchel season where they finished 4th?
EHHHH
