News Britannia: Former Juventus target linked with Premier League move
“We always say that we listen to everything, but this does not apply to Julain [Draxler] and Andre [Schurrle]”, he told the Bild.
“We want to return to the Champions League with them.”
France football also claims that Juventus are still interested in welcoming the player’s services though Draxler is not on the Old Lady’s shopping list since almost one year.
The bianconeri tried to sign the promising winger from Schalke 04 last summer, but Draxler snubbed a move to Juventus to join Wolfsburg instead.
