Chelsea Advised To Do What It Takes To keep Rudiger

 Chelsea currently remain at a stalemate with Rudiger regarding a possible contract extension. 

The former Roma man could walk away for free at the end of the season and seek a lucrative deal elsewhere, but Keown has stressed his importance to the side. 

 "He's a real driving force for Chelsea – I love watching him play," Keown told BBC's Match of the Day. "I was an aggressive defender myself, but I think this guy takes it to another level. 

 "When he gets the ball, he likes to run forward. The fans love him there because he makes things happen. 

 "Defensively – he's so aggressive. He just shuts the door. 

So aggressive, strong, and he really leads from the back. "He's a nuisance to play against and he's been outstanding for them."
