Juventus competing with Tottenham for Real Madrid’s Antonio Rudiger

Juventus have set their sights on Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger as they look to add elite experience and command to their defensive unit.

According to TuttoJuve, the Bianconeri are closely monitoring the German international, whose current contract in the Spanish capital is set to expire in the summer of 2026. The Juventus management views Rüdiger as a profile capable of making an immediate impact, providing the leadership and physical presence that has at times been lacking in the backline this season.

However, securing the former Roma and Chelsea man will not be a straightforward task. The report notes that Juventus face stiff competition from Tottenham, with the Premier League side also keen on bringing the veteran defender back to London. As Rüdiger enters the final year of his deal, the opportunity to sign a serial winner is expected to ignite a high-profile battle between the Turin giants and their English counterparts.
