Antonio Rüdiger fulfilled this summer the "dream" of fichar by the Real Madrid. The operation took his time in closing , but Sahr Senesie, stepbrother and agent of the ex head office of Chelsea, desveló in an interview to 'Kicker' how carried out the negotiations so that Rüdiger finished arriving to Santiago Bernabéu.
"At the beginning, the club puts in contact, exchanges information. Afterwards, the key people of the club speak of this internally. The second time, leave his interest and ask if the player also would be interested. Also it treats of a mutual interest. In the mentioned second step, also can begin to speak of numbers, of what have in mind", explained the representative on the start of the operation.
In the case of Rüdiger the executive signalled that "it was different". "Lla Contrives to change only existed during the phase in which the player, in this case my brother, was seated in the terracing. But at the end it did not produce the course. As we know, everything improved with Thomas Tuchel. However, we did not want simply sign a new agreement, even without a concrete intention of change, because the same people followed involved in the club".
On the paper of Florentino Pérez in the negotiation, the agent commented that "the contact was directly with the Real Madrid, no with him, but with the direction. They did not arise complications, since we were in contact with the club from 2016. The interest concretised in 2019, before it arrived the prohibition of fichar in Chelsea and Toni did not want to force a traspaso by respect to the managers of Chelsea".
