Tottenham<\/a> Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing Real Madrid<\/a> star Antonio Rudiger, as per Football Insider<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n After winning a Champions League<\/a> trophy and several major cup competitions with Chelsea<\/a>, the 32-year-old decided to move to the Estadio Santiago Bernab\u00e9u as a free agent back in 2022.<\/p>\n The German has also enjoyed a successful time at the Spanish capital over the last few years, winning a La Liga title, Champions League trophy, and several other major cup competitions.<\/p>\n However, with Rudiger\u2019s existing deal set to expire at the end of this season, speculation surrounding his future has started emerging in recent months.<\/p>\n Now, Football Insider<\/em> state that Tottenham are exploring the possibility of reinforcing the backline, with Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero both linked with moves away amid Spurs\u2019 recent struggles.<\/p>\n The Lilywhites are \u2018hugely keen\u2019 on signing an experienced player like Rudiger as a free agent if they are eventually forced to cash-in on Romero or Van de Ven.<\/p>\n Apart from the Real Madrid star, Tottenham are also interested in signing Bayern Munich centre-back Kim Min-Jae to bolster the backline.<\/p>\n However, Spurs are currently languishing 16th in the Premier League<\/a> table, sitting only four points ahead of the relegation zone. So, they would struggle to attract top-level players like Rudiger or Kim if they eventually fail to stay in the top-flight.<\/p>\n Rudiger, standing at 6ft 3in tall, is one of the best centre-backs in the world. He is quick, strong, good in the air, comfortable playing out from the back, and is also efficient in defensive contributions.<\/p>\n Therefore, the former Chelsea star would be a great coup for Tottenham should they purchase him. However, it is going to be interesting to see whether the North London club eventually make a concrete approach to secure his service if he becomes a free agent in the summer.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, following an awful first half of the season under Thomas Frank, Tottenham decided to appoint Igor Tudor as manager until the end of the campaign.<\/p>\n However, the Croatian boss has endured a tough start, having been thrashed 4\u20131 by Arsenal<\/a> in the Premier League last weekend.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t![\"Rememore](\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/FootballTalk_New_Chapter-rememore.png\")
