Football rumours: Thomas Tuchel leads charge to keep Antonio Rudiger at Chelsea

Thomas Tuchel wants to head off Tottenham’s interest in *Antonio Rudiger* by having Chelsea offer the centre-back a new deal, according to the Express. The paper says the manager is pushing for a better offer to be made to the 28-year-old, whose contract at Stamford Bridge expires next summer, following the Germany defender’s rejection of the Blues’ first offer.
