Chelsea face the prospect of losing three defenders on free transfers this summer with Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and club captain Cesar Azpilicueta out of contract
Thomas Tuchel believes players can fulfil “any dream” they have at Chelsea and says Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger will not be able to find an upgrade on the Blues should they decide to leave when their contracts expire in the summer.
Talks to extend the deals of Christensen and Rudiger – both of whom have thrived under Tuchel – have taken place throughout this season but no agreement has been found between Chelsea and the centre-back duo. It is a similar story with club captain Cesar Azpilicueta.
