If they criticised Cristiano Ronaldo, who am I – Rudiger opens on situation at Real Madrid
Antonio Rudiger, a defender for Real Madrid, has expressed astonishment at receiving criticism within the organization.
The German international made the decision to sign for Real Madrid as a free agent after declining to extend his Chelsea contract in 2021.
The former Blues star has participated in 43 games for Los Blancos in a variety of competitions since joining the team.

The German has also frequently received criticism for his less-than-superior performances.
Rudiger responded to the criticism by saying that he is not exempt from it if legends like Luka Modric, Karim Benzema, and Cristiano Ronaldo encounter criticism at the club from time to time.
“Are Real Madrid players dealing with pressure? It’s really easy for me,” he said to Madrid Xtra.
“Cristiano, Benzema, Modri, all of them, received criticism here. Who am I to escape judgment?
