Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been encouraged in his long-term interest for PSG attacker Julian Draxler.
The Germany international, who only moved to PSG in January from Wolfsburg, is ready to leave Paris after the arrival of Neymar from Barcelona. Draxler has been left asking where he fits in coach Unai Emery's plans.
The Times says Arsenal have attempted to sign him several times, including last summer, and have been told that the French club want around £32 million to complete a deal this summer.
The Germany player joined Paris Saint-Germain on a four-and-a-half-year contract just seven months ago for £35.5 million from Wolfsburg.
Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund have expressed an interest, with the Bundesliga club facing the possibility of losing Ousmane Dembele to Barcelona. Draxler's wages, worth about £90,000 a week, could be a problem for both of those clubs.
