• Real Madrid are reportedly set to triple his weekly wages once he completes the Santiago Bernabeu move

Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger is in line to get a massive paycheck after he reportedly agreed a deal to join Real Madrid at the end of the season.

Reports on Rudiger's imminent Chelsea exit emerged earlier in the weekend, with the club's boss, Thomas Tuchel, all but confirming the German is on his way out.

Speaking after the Blues' 1-0 win over West Ham United, Tuchel divulged the club's attempts to secure Rudiger's future fell flat.

The former AS Roma star has for months been embroiled in contract talks with his Chelsea bosses over his current contract situation.

However, with the West London club yet to find a new owner after Roman Abramovich was sanctioned, discussions on renewing Rudiger's contract slowed down.

With his future with the Blues uncertain, Real Madrid are understood to have swooped in and convinced the Germany international to dump the Pensioners for a move to the La Liga.

According to The Sun, the 29-year-old's mega move to Real Madrid will see him bank almost £60million.

The publication claims the centre-back will pen a lucrative four-year deal worth about £300,000 a week.

The amount is understood to be far much higher than what Chelsea were willing to offer for the versatile defender to renew his contract.

Rudiger is currently pocketing £100,000 per week at Stamford Bridge.
