After struggling to adapt to Italian football, the performances from the German defender improved in the second half of the 2015-16 season and he helped his team secure third place in the Serie A table.
“My first year in Serie A was good,” Rudiger told WAZ. “My first year in Serie A was good. Unfortunately we did not succeed in getting second place but the ending of the season was positive.
“The difference with the Bundesliga and Serie A is mainly the tactical nature of it.”
Rudiger is currently owned by German club Stuttgart and he has been linked with a move to English club Chelsea but he is not worried about the transfer speculation.
“Currently I am a Roma player and I am happy at this club,” he added. “The again you never know what can happen in football and I wish that the club can come up with something now or after Euro 2016.
“I have heard Chelsea rumours for about three years now but I repeat that I am doing well at Roma.”
