‘Clown’… Mateusz Klich blasts old Chelsea player as the ‘worst’ he has ever played against

Former Leeds United midfielder Mateusz Klich has blasted Real Madrid defender Antonio Rudiger as the ‘worst’ player he’s ever come up against.

Rudiger played against Leeds on a handful of occasions for Chelsea before making the switch to Real Madrid in the summer of 2022 on a free transfer.

Klich made the claim on his official Twitter account last night after a video surfaced of Rudiger making a studs up tackle on Napoli’s Piotr Zielinski, for which he did not even get booked.

Zielinski is a former international teammate of Klich’s for Poland and so clearly the 33-year-old is still left with bad memories from when Rudiger came up against Leeds while in the Premier League.

He wrote on Twitter: “Rudiger is the worst pick I’ve ever played. Clown.”

Klich not afraid to tweet his mind

Klich is likely to be looking back on a certain meeting between Chelsea and Leeds at Stamford Bridge almost two years ago now.

Leeds were decimated by injuries at the time but were undone by two fairly controversial penalties that allowed Chelsea to steal a 3-2 win in stoppage time.

Rudiger was the man who actually won both penalties for Chelsea that afternoon, with Klich the culprit for the 93rd minute one which saw Leeds undeservedly leave empty handed.

A big scuffle on the pitch at full-time then ensued involving Rudiger, Junior Firpo and several more players, and so this match is something Klich clearly has not forgotten in a hurry.

This is not the first time Klich has not been afraid to tweet his mind in recent months, with when he laughed off Max Wober labelling himself as a ‘warrior’ upon his Leeds exit springing to mind.
