Real Madrid are no longer in the running to sign Antonio Rudiger after talks with the out-of-contract Chelsea defender hit a stumbling block, according to reports in Spain.
Rudiger, 28, recently entered the final six months of his current Stamford Bridge deal and does not appear close to an extension, having rejected an offer worth £140,000 per week from the Blues.
The Germany defender's representatives are therefore understood to have opened talks with a number of clubs over a potential free transfer next summer,
