Kehrer set for reported €37m PSG switch, Schalke confirm
Thilo Kehrer is on the verge of joining Paris Saint-Germain for a reported fee of €37million ($42m), Schalke sporting director Christian Heidel has confirmed.
Kehrer, a Schalke youth product, initially broke into the club's first-team squad in the 2016-17 campaign before going on to enjoy a breakthrough season last term.
The 21-year-old defender started 27 games in the Bundesliga in 2017-18 as Schalke finished second to Bayern Munich.
Kehrer had agreed to a contract extension at the club, according to Heidel, but PSG then came in with an offer the club could not refuse.
