As the January transfer window nears the possibility of a lot of transfers is visible quite early, Blues defender Antonio Rudiger expressed his wishes to join the Spanish against FC Barcelona next year. In an attempt to strengthen Barca’s backline Ronald Koeman is interested in taking the player on as his possible move is being contemplated. Barcelona is also targeting Manchester City’s Eric Garcia to strengthen its defensive side who is preferred over Rudiger and even Liverpool FC’s Joel Matip. Rudiger’s lack of playtime for Chelsea FC under Frank Lampard strengthens the rumor since the Germany international is yet to feature in Blues Squad this season. Chelsea FC is gearing up to face Newcastle United as soon as the international break ends.
