“The match I played with Chelsea at the Bernabéu was special, so intense. It was my first time playing at the Santiago Bernabéu. The match went pretty well for the team and it was an incredible feeling for me. After the third goal, there was still a really positive atmosphere. I took away amazing feelings and having the chance to play for a club like this is unbelievable”, Rudiger added .

On his role to Real Madrid’s defence :“Real Madrid have so many really top players, particularly in my position, but I feel pretty confident. My contribution will be based on a competitive edge, a healthy element for any time and something that drives us to keep fighting. It’s a challenge that really piqued my interest”, Rudiger said.
On his experience of other leagues :“To have the opportunity to play in several leagues is amazing. The German league is incredibly physical, Italy is a more tactical country and it’s important to control every game. In the Premier League, you have to play so many games and every single one is high-intensity. It’s a very physical league. The Spanish league has some lovely football, with a high press and that’s a challenge for me, I’m very excited”,he added.
On Real Madrid mean to him :“I remember Ronaldo Nazario, he was my idol. Everybody wanted to be a forward and be like Ronaldo. Then Zidane as well, who scored that incredible Champions League final goal.
The first contact between Real Madrid and my agent came in September last year. The second time I spoke to Ancelotti himself was in April. My contact with him was the most important moment and that’s when I made the decision to join this club. He told me he wanted me here, he trusted me, and that I could really help the team. At my age, that’s more than enough. We’re talking about Ancelotti. I know at Madrid there will always be competition but I’m ready to fight for my place”,Rudiger said.

On his Number 22 shirt :“I like the number 2 in general. It’s Carvajal’s number, so I had to choose between 12 and 22 and I went for the 22. I haven’t thought about it too much, I just like the number”.
