Julian Draxler could be available for Leeds United to sign on a free transfer, according to Goal.com’s latest update.

Draxler has just months remaining on his deal at PSG, and the Daily Mail reported just two weeks ago how Leeds were discussing signing him.

The German was initially expected to depart this month, but it seems that may not be the case.

Goal’s latest report suggests Draxler would be happy to stick at PSG until the summer, when he will be free to move on as a free agent.

That could make any deal even more appealing to Leeds, if they can convince him to move to Elland Road.

Draxler’s arrival would certainly be a statement of intent from the Whites, given his standing in the footballing world.

The 27-year-old, who was hailed as ‘quality’ by ex-PSG boss Thomas Tuchel (Goal), could also inject real quality into Leeds’ attack.

Draxler would offer Leeds skill and craft, and the likes of Patrick Bamford could seriously benefit from the increase in service, the PSG man could provide.
