Arsenal make approach to sign Julian Draxler

Arsenal are said to be planning somewhat of a player exodus in the final few days of the transfer window with as many as five players potentially leaving the club.

With many players on the verge of exits, Arsene Wenger is in a race against the clock to bring in replacements but the Gunners have made an approach to sign Julian Draxler from PSG, Le 10 Sport claim. Manchester United have also been linked with the former Schalke star.

Premier League rivals Liverpool and Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund are both interested in Draxler also after the German attacker was made available for transfer following the arrival of Neymar from Barcelona for a world-record fee.

Draxler only joined PSG in January and scored 10 goals in 25 appearances for the club but they could be forced to cash-in on him as they look to balance the books.

Roger Wittmann, Draxler’s agent, was at Anfield last week amid rumours that Liverpool were preparing a move for him, but it’s Arsenal who have made the first approach and the Gunners are ready to bid £32m to sign him.
