Paris, Aug 23: Paris Saint-Germain wantaway star Julian Draxler has already drawn interest from many Premier league clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool.

Another English giant Manchester United are also believed to be keeping tabs on the attacker with Jose Mourinho still seeking to make one option to his squad before the transfer window closes on August 31.

However, barring all these names, another surprising name has shown up in the market as Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich are also believed to be thinking about a move for Paris Saint-Germain forward, according to reports from Germany.

The former Schalke winger could leave PSG after his place in the squad was taken by new multi million arrivals of Neymar and manager Unai Emery has also allegedly told the 23-year old that he has no future at the Parc des Princes. He was also recently been left out of their squads for their opening Ligue 1 fixtures.

The German international arrived at the Parc des Princes from Wolfsburg in January for £35.5m and assisted four goals and scored once in 17 games in the second half of 2016-17.

The 23-year-old also recently captained Germany to their Confederations Cup triumph this summer and had a decent competition, winning the Golden Ball.

He is apparently available at around £32 million, a price many top clubs would joyfully spend to land the PSG genius.

And With time on his side, Draxler would be an incredible addition to any side, and it won't be long before the race for the midfielder achieves a peak.And given the situation of the elevated market, the mentioned price could soon turn out to be a deal of bargain for the attacking player.
