John Brooks’ days with Hertha Berlin could be numbered.
A report from German outlet Kicker says that Hertha Berlin will explore the possibility of selling the U.S. Men’s National Team defender should he not sign a new deal with the club in the coming weeks. Brooks is currently set to see his contract expire in 2017, and the club is hoping to reach an extension before Christmas.
Should a deal not be reached, Hertha Berlin would have few options, as the club would not want to risk letting Brooks enter the final year of his deal. If he does, the club would be forced to either sell on the cheap or risk losing him altogether.
Hertha Berlin has been negotiating with Brooks’ representatives for more than a year, but a change in representation saw talks fall apart last year. According to Kicker, Brooks has an interest in playing in the Premier League should a move come to fruition.
Brooks has started the past four games for the German Bundesliga club while contributing a goal this past weekend.
What do you think of the Brooks reports? Should he stay with Hertha Berlin? What clubs would be better fits?
