Who is the source? And didn't he just move to Wolfsburg?

If United sign Mkhitaryan and we miss out on Draxler, who seems willing to move, i would view that as criminal.

‘At the moment I think most of the young talented players are in France,’ Wenger said.

‘We speak about Martial, we speak about Coman, who are still about 20. And I’ve seen a very interesting young talent from Turkey – Mor.

‘You have as well some other players like Sane in Germany. It will be very interesting as well to follow what Draxler is doing, he’s still a very young player.’

Wouldn't he cost similar to what Mkh would cost? Swear Draxler was bought for around 30mil Euros and Wolfsburg will want to make a profit..

This doesn't make that much sense to me. Unless Mkh is the second player to turn us down this summer. We need a goal scorer on our RW. Not sure Draxler is that much of an upgrade over our current options in that department.

I assumed that much, why the :lol:?

Look I've no idea if he can play as a striker or not, it seems like an incredibly risky strategy to sign someone for 35 million+ with the view of playing them in a position that they've never played in before.

Also I thought the rumours of us signing him in January 2014 to play him as a striker were a tad suspect.

This will only happen if wenger wants to play him as a striker, I can see that working, but we have better wingers already at the club

Love Draxler, but he's not good enough to take us to the next level.

I don't think he'll ever be elite either. The way he plays he doesn't get the best out of his talent imo, he's a great dribbler but he lacks pace to fully make great use of it.

Anyway, pointless thread and rumours, we're not signing him.

Also, when will this converting every winger to a striker bollocks end?

We never see it anyway. When was the last time we saw it succesfully happen? Probably goes back to Henry. :lol:

Agree with all of this but then again I'm sure he's 100000x more useful than Theo.
