Jonjoe Kenny of Hertha Berlin has fewer than six months left on his contract and is interested in joining Sheffield United in the winter transfer window.
On Wednesday, we highlighted allegations from Germany that the right-back’s transfer to Sheffield United is ready to fail.
According to Sky Deutschland journalist Florian Plettenberg, the Blades met with the second division German team yesterday but were unable to reach an agreement.
Bild reports that the ‘tug-of-war’ between the Championship side and Hertha Berlin is ended, and the 27-year-old will finish the season in Germany.
According to recent reports, Sheffield United offered €600,000 plus €600,000 if they are promoted to the Premier League, while Hertha Berlin sought €2 million.
Sheffield United made a formal offer for the defender to Hertha Berlin on Sunday. According to the article, the English club has offered two separate fees.
According to Bild, rumours from England state that if they return to the top level, they will receive €600k + €600k in bonuses. It’s worth noting that the German publication had mentioned the same data.
According to Hertha Berlin, Sheffield United’s offer was’significantly cheaper’, with €250,000 plus €250,000 in bonuses if they get promoted. This is not enough for them to approve a move.
Hertha Berlin is presently 12th in the table and believes that keeping Kenny will help them climb higher. If this happens, they will be able to earn more money by distributing TV money.
As a result, they have decided to cancel the Englishman’s transfer to Sheffield United. According to reports in the United Kingdom, Chris Wilder’s team will recruit Harry Clarke on loan from Ipswich Town.
This operation may allow Kenny to remain hopeful of joining Sheffield United on a free transfer in the summer.
