Juventus have hatched a new plan to lure Chelsea central defender Antonio Rudiger ahead of Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur and Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United, according to The Sun.
The Sun have reported that Juventus are planning to build up Rudiger as the new ‘Chiellini’ in order to lure him to the Serie A club.
Giorgio Chiellini is a legend of game, and the plan is for the Italian central defender to help Rudiger settle at Juventus next season before calling it a day.
The Sun have reported that Newcastle and Manchester United are interested in the defender, who has offers from Juventus, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich as well.
The 29-year-old Germany international central defender reportedly prefers Juventus’s offer
Eurosport reported in December that Tottenham are keen on bringing Rudiger to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on a free transfer and are planning to make a strong offer.
Antonio Rudiger blow for Tottenham and Newcastle
In our opinion, Juventus’s strong interest in and plan for Rudiger is a blow for Tottenham and Newcastle.
The defender regulars competes for major trophies and also won the Champions League with Chelsea last season.
Now, Newcastle and Tottenham are big clubs, but they do not win titles or compete for major honours.
Juventus are one of the biggest clubs in the world and are European giants, and we can understand why they would appeal to Rudiger.
