In a reply to a tweet asking whether or not Kehrer would be interested in joining West Ham, Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg replied with yes, confirming the German International would be open to joining the Hammers.

The 25-year-old made 34 appearances for the PSG last season, but new manager Christophe Galtier doesn’t appear to have Kehrer in his future plans.

Good news for David Moyes, who is running out of time to get any further signings this summer complete before the window ends on the 1st of September.
With the Hammer’s boss looking to ensure a top 6 place this season, he will be keen on bolstering his backline, and with Craig Dawson having only a year remaining on his contract and fitness worries around Kurt Zouma, West Ham are in desperate need of more centre-backs.
The versatile defender will be a great signing for the Hammers, with his ability to play at both left-back and in central defence a big advantage for the London club.
