It seems that German defender Antonio Rüdiger is living his last season with Real Madrid, as his chances of continuing within the ranks of the royal club have diminished due to recurring injuries that have limited his regular participation this season.

The German newspaper "Bild" revealed that Rüdiger's future has become increasingly uncertain, with growing indications pointing to his potential departure at the end of the 2025-2026 season, amid unclear positions from the club's management regarding renewing or extending his contract.

Rüdiger is facing a critical period in his professional career, as he fully realizes that his upcoming decisions will determine his future in the coming years, especially after losing his starting position in the white team's lineup due to repeated absences caused by muscle injuries.

The German star is currently focusing on a gradual return to full physical fitness without rushing, preferring complete recovery before participating in any matches, with the desire to deliver a strong performance that brings him back to his known level and grants him a new contract either in Spain or abroad.

According to the same sources, several clubs from the Saudi league are closely monitoring the situation, as clubs like Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr, and Al-Ahli have shown great interest in the player's services, given his extensive experience and ability to lead the defensive line with high efficiency.

Next summer may witness a Saudi-European battle for Rüdiger's signature, who does not rule out the possibility of embarking on a new experience outside the old continent, especially with the significant financial incentives offered by Saudi clubs as part of their plans to attract top-tier global stars.
