National soccer player Julian Draxler, 28, no longer seems to be in demand at Paris Saint-Germain. According to the French sports newspaper, the French top club with the exceptional talents Kylian Mbappé, Neymar and Lionel Messi The Team Ten players are on a strike list – including Draxler, who moved to Paris in 2017.
The new PSG trainer Christophe Galtier (previously: OGC Nice) and sports director Luis Campos, who has also just taken office, want to thin out the squad by the start of the season, according to reports. Draxler, whose contract in Paris runs until 2024, was one of four squad professionals who was not even invited to the team’s preparatory trip to Japan. The 28-year-old only started preparing on July 11 after having knee surgery in April. Besides him, Ander Herrera, Georginio Wijnaldum and Layvin Kurzawa also have to stay at home. The German national defender Thilo Kehrer, 25, is allowed to travel to Japan. Like Draxler, he is hoping to take part in the Winter World Championships in Qatar.
