With Antonio Rudiger set to leave Chelsea at the end of the season having never won a league title in England, here are 10 other top stars who, perhaps surprisingly, never got their hands on the Premier League trophy.
On Sunday, Thomas Tuchel confirmed that the Germany defender will leave Stamford Bridge after talks over a contract extension for the player reached a deadlock. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the 29-year-old already has a verbal agreement to join Real Madrid.
The centre-back will depart the Blues having won five trophies, with the potential of a sixth when they face Liverpool in the FA Cup final in May. However, the Premier League title is not among the accolades he has claimed with the London club.
As such, Rudiger will join a star-studded list of great players who never got their hands on the EPL trophy, including former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard.
