Rumour: Draxler Is Keen To Join Arsenal

With transfer deadline inching closer, Arsenal are looking into signing one or two players to strengthen their stand in the title race. Currently they are linked with Schalke forward Julian Draxler and also Vucinic from Juventus.

John Cross, a well known journalist tweeted that Draxler is very keen to join the North London side.

Draxler is injured right now but he will be ready to play in just one week time. Schalke wants around £35m for the German star, but Arsenal are not willing to pay anything more than £30m. But as per recent reports, Arsenal are growing in confidence that they can negotiate a deal before the deadline.
