Arsenal, Juventus alerted as agent says: Draxler WILL leave Wolfsburg

The agent of Julian Draxler has announced he will leave VfL Wolfsburg.

The Sun says the German playmaker was strongly linked with a Premier League switch over the summer, with Arsenal reportedly making a £43million bid during Euro 2016.

Everton tried chasing a deal in August with their new-found riches, while there was an offer on the table from Paris Saint-Germain.

Juventus are also keen and agent Fabio Parisi said: “Max Allegri had spoken to Draxler, they were in sync and there was an immediate rapport between them.

Wolfsburg have strong owners, but unfortunately for the German fans, everyone wants to leave there. Over the summer Draxler was on the verge of joining PSG, who had offered nearly £59m. “He will definitely leave Wolfsburg at the end of the season. He would've gladly run to join Juve and is the ideal trequartista for Allegri.

“I repeat: Draxler will leave, but whether or not Juventus are interested again is another matter."
