Real Madrid: Antonio Rüdiger has signed his contract extension

With his contract at Real Madrid coming to an end, Antonio Rüdiger has already put pen to paper on his new deal with the club.

He has extended his stay in the Spanish capital until 2027, according to Sky Sport. The official announcement is expected after the presidential election at the Santiago Bernabéu.

This extension confirms Rüdiger's central role in Real Madrid's defensive hierarchy. Even after a recent spell with a few dips in form, his experience, physical presence, and leadership in a rebuilding dressing room remain highly valued within the club.
