3) Julian Draxler
Draxler of Wolfsburg has been a long-term target for Arsenal, and his comments over the summer regarding his future at Wolfsburg have backfired horribly. A move for the 23-year-old never actually materialised, and fans at the club have been on his back ever since. Draxler was jeered on Saturday and will be looking to move away from Wolfsburg in the January window.
“I don’t think I need to tell anybody what [being booed] does to a person - it certainly doesn’t help you,”
“There’s no doubt it makes it hard for you to perform on the field. I can understand the fans, though. They have every right to do that. I said in the summer the way I feel and I stand by that.”
As it happens every window, Arsenal have been linked with a move for Draxler. After having a good season for Wolfsburg in 2015/16, the youngster hasn’t quite produced the same kind of form that he did last term. The German international has yet to score a goal or provide an assist this season.
