AS Monaco’s Thilo Kehrer in talks with Ajax Amsterdam on deadline day | OneFootball

Thilo Kehrer is in talks with Ajax Amsterdam as the summer window closes on Tuesday at 19:59. The AS Monaco centre-back has featured for only one minute across four official matches this season.

According to Nice-Matin, the 28-year-old Germany international is moving closer to Ajax, although administrative details still need to be settled before any departure can be approved.

On Monday he was inclined to stay, despite Monaco’s wish to reduce one of the squad’s biggest salaries during a period of wage control. Discussions with the Dutch club have shifted in recent hours. Any agreement could be a paid loan worth two million euros with no option to buy.

Kehrer captained Monaco in a 5-2 friendly win over Saint-Priest in July.

He made a brief appearance on the Ligue 1 opening day at Le Havre. Head coach Filipe Luis currently prefers Eric Dier in central defence alongside Sadibou Sané.
