Moreover, the club's hierarchy is considering breaking from a long-standing tradition. Typically, players over the age of 30 are offered only one-year contracts by the royal club. However, an exception may be made for Rüdiger. The management of Los Blancos is contemplating a new deal for the 32-year-old German that could span two to three years.
The player himself is also open to continuing his collaboration with the club. Despite interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia, Rüdiger remains focused on Real Madrid as his priority. He feels very comfortable in the team and the city.
Since joining the royal club, Rüdiger has made 145 official appearances, scoring 7 goals and providing 2 assists.
Last season, he secured his second UEFA Champions League title with Real Madrid. The Berlin-born defender joined the Galácticos in 2022 as a free agent from London’s Chelsea.
