West Ham United offers Thilo Kehrer to Roma in a bid to navigate FFP rules and create space within the squad

West Ham United is reportedly looking to offload some of their fringe players who haven’t seen much action under manager David Moyes this season, in order to navigate FFP rules and create space within the squad before pursuing new signings.

The Hammers have reportedly offered Thilo Kehrer to Jose Mourinho’s Roma, signaling a proactive approach to making changes in the squad during the upcoming transfer period, according to a report from Fabrizio Romano.

Offering Thilo Kehrer to Roma is an interesting development considering Roma’s pursuit of Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah.

The 27-year-old Kehrer could be seen as a viable option for Roma, especially given his age compared to other defensive targets such as Leandro Bonucci.

It would be a smart move for West Ham considering Kehrer is on the periphery of the squad, and considering Moyes needs to find a way to create room due to FFP worries.

Not only that, they could add players they will actually use in the upcoming transfer window.
