Jonjoe Kenny, born on the 15th of March, 1997 in England, is a seasoned defender known for his precision play as a right back for Hertha BSC. Standing sturdy at 5ft 9in (1.76m) and weighing in at 10st 7lb (67kg), Kenny dons the number 16 jersey for his club. As of present, his market value circles around the £2.1m mark, according to Transfermarkt. His contract with Hertha BSC is due to run out on the 30th of June, 2025.
Kenny kickstarted his football career with Everton in the Premier League back in 2014. Over the course of his tenure with Everton, Kenny showed a steady progression as he moved from one first team match appearance in his initial seasons to making 15 appearances in the 2021-2022 season.
While still contracted to Everton, Kenny had spells loaned out to other clubs, including Wigan Athletic in the English League One, where he made seven appearances in the 2015-2016 seasons. Equally notable was his stint at Oxford United in the Championship during the same season in which he lined up 17 times for the U’s.
In 2019, Kenny's growing reputation saw him make a move to Germany's second-tier league with Schalke 04 on loan from Everton. Here, he made a significant impact with 31 appearances and two goals in his debut season.
However, it was in February 2021 that we Celtic faithful welcomed Kenny into our fold, as he joined on loan from Everton. Within the limited span of his contract, Kenny made his presence felt on the pitch firmly with 14 first team appearances for the Hoops during the 2020 - 2021 season. Although his time in the green and white was brief, Kenny made a lasting impact with his consistency and commitment to the role.
Following his return to Everton, a transfer to Hertha BSC in Germany’s 2. Bundesliga marked a new chapter in Kenny's career in July 2022. Since then, he's remained a steady figure in the team featuring 15 times and scoring once so far in the 2024 - 2025 season, while the previous season saw him make 29 first team appearances and also netting the ball three times.
