Rudiger's salary at Madrid revealed - will earn almost twice his Chelsea wages
As per the very reliable Real Madrid source Marca, Antonio Rudiger will cost the Los Blancos €59m till 2026 as he will sign a 4-year deal.
They don't have to pay any transfer fee to Chelsea as the centre-back's contract expires and he is a free agent.
Madrid will pay him €11m per year - he was earning €6m a year with Chelsea. This comes down to just over €211,000 per week.
Madrid will also give him an €11m signing bonus (which is included in the wages over four years). Reportedly, Rudiger was asking for higher wages but agreed to lower his demands eventually.
The commissions over the contract (agent fees) are coming out to approximately €15m.
