Antonio Rudiger makes hefty Chelsea contract demands

Antonio Rudiger has no plans of extending his stay with the Blues unless they meet his contract demands, Marca claims.

The German has entered the final six months of his £90,000-a-week deal, and he can negotiate with foreign clubs.

It is now reported that Rudiger feels disrespected by the Blues after their opening offer of £135,000-a-week.

The centre-back is eyeing at least £220,000-a-week to sign a four-year renewal.

Meanwhile, he could reduce his demands to £180,000-a-week if the Blues agree to extend his stay for five years.

Chelsea are still undecided over the situation, but may come up with a fresh offer for Rudiger in the coming weeks.

Thomas Tuchel is desperate to keep Rudiger at the club, but the board have yet to meet the defender's requirements.

The 28-year-old could receive a higher salary at Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid, but prefers to stay with the Blues.

He is ready to wait for another few weeks before considering offers elsewhere.
