Antonio Rudiger has revealed he wasn't ready to 'pack it all in' at Chelsea, despite being linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge during the recent transfer window.
The 27-year-old defender has fallen out of favour at the Blues which saw the likes of Tottenham, Roma and AC Milan register interest in the German.
Rudiger has not played for Chelsea this season and been left out of every squad since being named as an unused substitute against Brighton in September.
