Rudiger has been one of the club’s standout performers this season and his loss will prove a blow, with Chelsea still vying for a top-four finish and Europa League glory.Maurizio Sarri’s men currently sit fourth with a two-point cushion over Arsenal, but the Blues have two tricky fixtures remaining – against Watford at home and Leicester away. First they travel to Germany to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday.The competition could offer a lifeline to the Blues if they falter in their final two league games, as the winners automatically qualify for next season’s Champions League.
