Kehrer looks like a bargain

Thilo Kehrer has signed from Paris Saint-Germain for a bargain £10.1 million and certainly looks an upgrade on Issa Diop. The German international has won three Ligue 1 titles, three cups and played in a Champions League Final with PSG. At 25 he is a good age and with just one year left on his contract comes at a bargain price for a centre-back — compare his price with the £80 million Man United paid for Harry Maguire. Another advantage is his versatility, Thilo is mainly a centre back but can also play both full-back positions and defensive midfield which in WHU's small squad is going to prove very useful. Looking at his interview on the club website he seems a level-headed individual and should be a great addition to the squad.
