Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger has not ruled out the possibility of returning to Serie A in the future, despite being happy at his current club.
The German international of Sierra Leonean descent, who previously played in Italy with AS Roma, acknowledged the valuable experience he gained during his time in Serie A.
He credited the league for improving his defensive abilities and shaping his overall development as a player.
Despite his admiration for Italy, Rüdiger remains focused on his career at Real Madrid, where he has been a key figure in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.
However, he did not completely dismiss the possibility of a future return to Serie A, acknowledging the strength of clubs like Roma, Napoli, Juventus, Inter, and Milan.
“Italy was very important to me in the past, I learned a lot on a defensive level.
“And then I liked life, like the food: in Italy there is the best pasta and the best food. There are clubs like Roma, Napoli, Juventus, Inter, Milan, big important clubs.
“In football you never know, but I am very happy with where I am and I don’t think about where the future will take me.”
