Potential Fourth Hertha Player to Join Borussia Monchengladbach in Four Years?
Borussia Mönchengladbach is reportedly eyeing a move for Hertha BSC defender Jonjoe Kenny, who is set to leave the club on a free transfer after missing out on promotion to the Bundesliga.
The 28-year-old Englishman had a strong season in the second division with a struggling Hertha side, setting up eight goals and scoring one himself. Kenny's ambition to play at the highest level could see him depart Germany, with Gladbach and Mainz both showing interest.
In the past four years, Gladbach has signed three defenders from Hertha BSC. In 2021, they brought in left-back Luca Netz for a €2 million transfer fee, followed by center-back Jamil Najjar on a free transfer in 2022, and left-back Lukas Ullrich the following year. If a deal for Kenny is agreed upon, he could be the fourth Hertha defender to join Gladbach.
Kenny's potential departure from Hertha could open up a vacancy for a new right-back. However, Sheffield United, who were also interested in Kenny, seem unlikely to sign him, given their failure to return to the Premier League. Another candidate, Jonas Sterner, is reportedly on the verge of joining Hannover 96.
The transfer situation for Kenny remains speculative, with no official announcement yet. Any developments in the transfer saga will be closely watched by both clubs and their respective supporters.
