Rudiger warning message to Giroud and Mbappe, as £200m superstar opens door to Chelsea move
The Euro is on and Chelsea defender and Germany international Antonio Rudiger has warned Kylian Mbappe, Olivier Giroud and the other attackers in the French squad that Germany will have to play ‘a little dirty’ in their Euro 2020 opener.
Germany begin their Euro 2020 campaign against the reigning world champions in Munich on Tuesday evening.
“Of course, they have good forwards, we have to be ready to win the one-on-one challenges,” said Rudiger.
“We have to be a little dirty, not always be nice or try to play nice football.
“Against players like them, you have to throw down a marker.”
Kingsley Coman has told Bayern Munich that he wants to leave, amid Chelsea interest.
Boss Thomas Tuchel will look to add a bit more quality to his squad in the transfer window as there has been some reports in the media that Roman Abramovic will give the German a £200 million transfer kitty.
And that has led to some reports in the media that the club are very much interested in trying to secure the services of Coman from Bayern Munich by the end of the transfer window.
Coman still has two years left to run on his Bayern contract but negotiations over a new one have stalled, prompting transfer rumours and it seems the German club would entertain offers.
The 24-year-old winger contributed eight goals and 12 assists in 39 appearances for Bayern last season as Coman added another Bundesliga title to his trophy collection
Now, according to reports on the Daily Express website, the talented attacker has now told the German side that he wants to seek a fresh challenge in the game
Coman’s agent, Pini Zahavi, has begun testing the waters in England to gauge possible interest in his client, with reports claiming he wants a yearly wage of £13.7-14.6million (€16-17m)
Look, we are massive fans of Coman and believe he does have the quality to make an impact in the Premier League, especially after another impressive season in the Bundesliga.
So if he does want to leave the Germans and come here, he could be a very good signing for the club right?
