Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has rejected rumors of a signing of Antonio Rudiger.

Real Madrid, led by coach Ancelotti, lost 3–4 away to Manchester City in the first round of the 2021-2022 UEFA Champions League semi-final held at Ittihad Stadium in Manchester, England on the 27th (Korean time).

It was a difficult expedition. The two teams showed off their fierce attack power, and Real Madrid showed their concentration until the end, conceding two goals first, and eventually overtaking the score by one point.

At a press conference after the match, manager Ancelotti was asked about Rudiger’s signing and said, “Tony (Antonio)? “I don’t know who it is,” he said. “He’s a Chelsea player. He still can’t say anything because he’s a Chelsea player.”

And it will help us in the second leg of the next UCL.”
