Rudiger played a significant role during Chelsea’s successful times, helping the club win several titles.
At Stamford Bridge, he earned a Champions League, Europa League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, and an FA Cup winner’s medal. This connection to the club remains strong among his former teammates.
Chalobah recently spoke about what it was like to share that experience with players like Rudiger.
“Training with the first team during the second half of the season made it less intimidating—I felt prepared,” he said.
“It was an amazing moment for me. It was my first senior medal and trophy, and sharing it with players like Toni Rudiger and Eden Hazard was incredible.”
“Rudiger was especially supportive that season. He helped me a lot, and we keep in touch to this day. He’s been important in my journey, along with Eden Hazard and Olivier Giroud,” he added.
Ray Parlour suggests Rudiger consider a Chelsea return
Ray Parlour recently discussed the possibility of Rudiger returning to Stamford Bridge on talkSPORT, expressing his support for the idea.
“Bring him back; he knows Chelsea. I’d welcome him immediately. Every Chelsea fan would want him back,” he said.
Now 32, Rudiger still has the ability to perform at a high level, but it’s uncertain if he would be interested in returning to Chelsea.
His ongoing conversations with Chalobah indicate there might be some willingness to reconnect with old teammates.
The financial aspect is also important—his current salary at Real Madrid is significant, which could complicate any potential move.
