Julian Draxler reportedly wanted to join Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, and it seems that he still wants to leave Paris Saint-Germain.

90min reported in January that Draxler was willing to move to Tottenham from PSG as part of any swap-deal.

The 28-year-old, who can play as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, is struggling for playing time at PSG at the moment.

The Germany international forward has made five starts and 13 substitute appearances in Ligue 1 so far this season.

Draxler has scored two goals and given one assist in those games.

The PSG player has now said that he could leave PSG at the end of the season.

SportsMax quotes Draxler as saying: “My situation in the club is not easy – I lack the rhythm and I need to play more games.

“I haven’t spoken to the national coach about it, but he has already told us as a team that he needs fit players who are in rhythm. You’ll see what happens in the summer.”

Could Julian Draxler end up at Tottenham Hotspur?

In our opinion, if Tottenham are willing to sign Draxler, then the attacker could well move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer transfer window.

The 28-year-old is in his prime now, and he will surely want to play regularly.

Moreover, this is a World Cup year, and Draxler will want to be part of the Germany squad in Qatar.

Tottenham would be a better team with Draxler in it.

You never know what could happen when the transfer window is open.
