PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN have agreed a deal with Wolfsburg to sign German World Cup-winning midfielder Julian Draxler for €36 million (£30.5m), according to the website of French sports daily L’Equipe.
Draxler, 23, is on the market after a difficult first half to the season with a struggling Wolfsburg side and was widely expected to leave in the January transfer window.
“Those who want to leave should go! That should have been done in the summer,” an annoyed Wolfsburg striker Mario Gomez recently told German television.
