Now, they add that the centre-back is in ‘no rush’ to sign a new deal even though his current contract expires at the end of this season.

As per Spotrac, Raphael Varane is currently the highest-earning defender in England, pocketing £340,000 per week from Manchester United.
Virgil van Dijk signed a new long-term deal with Liverpool back in August but his exact wages have not been revealed yet. It would seem that Chelsea will have to match Varane’s salary to satisfy Rudiger.
