The defender has been superb for the Blues this season
Antonio Rudiger has shut down reports that he is in contract negotiations with Chelsea over a possible extension.
The 25-year-old only joined the Blues in the summer of 2017 and has been in superb form this season, forming a defensive partnership with David Luiz and putting in some excellent performances.
Rudiger was arguably the signing of Antonio Conte's summer, while in a back four he has started every Premier League game of the campaign so far.
The German international still has a contract that runs until the end of the 2021/22 campaign, and while there had been suggestions he could extend that deal, he insists that just isn't the case right now.
"That’s not the case to be honest," Rudiger told ESPN about whether he was going to sign a new deal.
"There’s no need, because I still have three-and-a-half years to go.
"There’s no speaking between me and the club. It’s also not necessary at the moment either with three-and-a-half years to go."
