It's official: Thilo Kehrer has signed for Ajax from Monaco. The defender's move has been confirmed by both clubs, with personal terms and registration finalised. He will now link up with his new teammates ahead of the upcoming fixtures, having completed a medical and agreed on contract terms. After interest from Besiktas and Milan, it was Ajax who persisted and completed the process. All formal steps are now done, and the player will begin work with his new club immediately. Ajax's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 0.67 goals per game (2 in 3). Thilo Kehrer would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Alongside this, Monaco are said to be exploring Djeidi Gassama, Pape Matar Sarr and Fares Ghedjemis with Ajax likewise connected to Hiroki Ito, Borja Sainz and Sofyan Amrabat.
