West Ham United has officially confirmed an agreement that transfers Thilo Kehrer to AS Monaco – at least until the conclusion of the ongoing season, with strong indications of a permanent move in the upcoming summer.
It has come to light that the transfer carries a reported price tag of €11 million for the German international, who has struggled to leave a significant mark at West Ham. Given his underwhelming performance, the proposed deal stands as a reasonably favorable outcome, particularly considering his initial acquisition by the club for €10 million.
Monaco, currently holding the third position in Ligue 1, evidently perceives Kehrer as a valuable addition to bolster their standing in the league, as they seek to ascend to the top of the table. The team is poised for a Cup clash against Lens after a midwinter break this weekend.
Since his arrival at West Ham from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2022, Kehrer has amassed 50 appearances, including a substitute appearance in the UEFA Europa Conference League final victory over Fiorentina last June. However, the 27-year-old has notably garnered just two starts and 12 appearances in the current season.
