Chelsea defender Rudiger reveals he was originally a winger alongside USMNT star Brooks

 The Blues centre-back originally made his name in attack before being moved to his current position in the centre of defence

Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger has revealed he originally played winger early in his career and was joined by Americans John Brooks and Jerome Kiesewetter as part of a three-man forward line.

Rudiger has been with Chelsea since 2017, when the German centre-back made the move to the Premier League in a £29 million ($39m) switch from Roma.

The German international has been a regular for the Blues ever since, making 120 appearances since heading to the Premier League.
