Ajax has signed Thilo Kehrer, a 28-time German international, on Deadline Day. The 29-year-old Kehrer arrives on loan from AS Monaco, where he played a key role as a starter last season.

With the addition of right-footed defender Kehrer, Ajax hopes to fill the void left by the departures of Josip Sutalo and Ko Itakura, who moved to Lazio and Borussia Mönchengladbach, respectively, in August.

According to De Telegraaf, Kehrer has already signed his contract. This confirms his transfer to Ajax, and he will strengthen the team for the remainder of the season.

Technical director Jordi Cruijff emphasized through the club channels that Kehrer is a player with a strong mentality, which is expected to be a valuable addition to the team.

This is an important move for Ajax, which aims to bolster its defense and approach the remainder of the competition with a solid backline.

Kehrer will soon join the squad and participate in training in preparation for the upcoming matches.
