European giants interested in signing Chelsea £36m-rated defender

The Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly pinpointed Chelsea centre-back Antonio Rudiger as a possible summer target this transfer market.

The French side’s new manager Thomas Tuchel remains interested in adding to his squad ahead of next campaign, and it’s believed that the German star is setting his sights on a host of central defensive targets.

Paris Saint-Germain have been heavily connected with a move for AC Milan central defender and captain Leonardo Bonucci, who looks set to depart from the San Siro this summer.

However, according to new claims from the French daily newspaper Le Parisien, as quoted by Get French Football News via Twitter, Chelsea central defender Rudiger has appeared as a potential option.

Germany international enjoyed a considerably stunning maiden season in Premier League with the Blues, but it seems a move to Paris Saint-Germain could be an option for him, should the French giants pursue their interest.

Another London-bassed outfit Tottenham Hotspur central defender Jan Vertonghen is also named as a possible acquisition for Paris Saint-Germain.

The last season, in all competitions, Antonio Rudiger made 45 appearances, netted 3 goals and provided 2 assists.
