Chelsea have yet to open contract talks with Antonio Rudiger.

Rudiger's contract runs out next summer and he is free to sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club in January.

Sky Sports says the Germany international is relaxed about the situation and is focused on helping his country win Euro2020.

After almost leaving the club in January, Rudiger became a key player under Thomas Tuchel.

The Blues lifted the Champions League trophy after beating Manchester City last weekend, with Rudiger delivering a fine defensive performance to help his side win.

Both the club and player are keen to talk about a new contract, but the negotiations have yet to commence.
