Hope this isn’t happening. If not Skriniar - then none.
We need improvement not width

Apologies if this has been answered, but why is he not in Lampards plans? Not exactly a position they are stacked in.

Chelsea’s Antonio Rudiger will be staying at Stamford Bridge, reports Raphael Honigstein.

The Athletic has learned that the German defender had very positive talks with Jose Mourinho, and that Chelsea were in principle prepared to let him go to Tottenham on loan.

While initially open to the move, it is understood that Rudiger felt wary of the potential fall out from supporters for playing for one of Chelsea’s biggest rivals. The 27-year-old decided that he would be better served attempting to fight his way back into the Chelsea starting XI via a twelve-month stint abroad instead.

Approaches by AC Milan, Roma and Barcelona came to nothing due to financial constraints at all three clubs but Paris Saint-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel was very keen to bring in the former Stuttgart centre-back.

The PSG hierarchy felt they couldn’t sanction the deal, however, having failed to recoup significant sums via player sales. Tuchel already voiced his frustration with the French champions’ relative lack of spending this window a few days ago. Missing out on Rudiger will have done nothing to improve his mood.

Poor PSG managers can’t spend hundreds of millions again. Poor lambs, have to feel sorry for them :rolleyes:.

So essentially, Jose tapped up a player at one of our main rivals, then left him disgruntled to mope about their squad until January. Yep, sounds like Mourinho (y)
