Completes Real Madrid move Rudiger has signed with Real Madrid on a four-year deal away from Chelsea.

Impact This move had been rumored for a few months and it's confirmed shortly after the end of the season for Real Madrid.

His new role will see him pair with David Alaba on the back line of the Champions League champions.

Back in starting XI Rudiger (groin) is back in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Rudiger returns to the XI Thursday after missing the last two matches with a variety of ailments. He's been getting a forward a bunch on set pieces, scoring twice and taking 10 shots in his last four matches, and he figures to do the same if Chelsea can take control of Thursday's match.

Impact Rudiger has missed the last week with a minor groin issue, but he's seemingly training again and could be ready to start Thursday. It's already been revealed that he won't be at Chelsea next season, so he has one more month to feature for the Blues, highlighted by the FA Cup final.

Will miss Sunday match Rudiger (groin) will miss Sunday's match against West Ham, according to manager Thomas Tuchel.

Impact Rudiger went from "close" to "doubtful" to "out" in the matter of 36 or so hours, which isn't a good sign for his groin injury. He'll have a few more days to recover ahead of next Thursday's trip to Manchester United, but for Sunday's match, it looks like Malang Sarr could be set for another start on the back line.

Doubt to face West Ham Rudiger is nursing a groin injury that is likely to keep him out Sunday against West Ham, confirmed manager Thomas Tuchel. "I don't think he will play against West Ham."

Impact Tuchel's comments changed before and after the match, so he either got an update in the 120-ish minutes or he wasn't being truthful before the match. Following a loss in which he wasn't happy, Tuchel then revealed the true nature of Rudiger's status and it doesn't look like the center-back will be ready Sunday. If that happens, it could mean more of Malang Sarr and Reece James or Cesar Azpilicueta at center-back, following a poor display from Andreas Christensen.
