Draxler set for Juventus move

 

Julian Draxler is on the verge of a move to Juventus, according to reports from Goal on Saturday.

 

The Serie A giants have been strongly linked with a move for the Schalke star and look to have got their man after the player and club agreed a deal, believed to be valued in the region of £2.6m per year.

 

Juventus and Schalke still need to agree a fee for Draxler, with the Italian side hoping to pay €25m for the creator, although Schalke are thought to be holding out for €35m.

Max Allegri had been keen to add an attacking midfielder to the ranks this summer, with Draxler his number one target.

 

Injury restricted the 21-year-old to just 8 league starts last season, with his 2 goals and 1 assist contributing to his WhoScored rating of 6.86.
