Schalke confident of keeping Julian Draxler out of Arsenals clutches in summer transfer window
Arsenal could be set for a summer of disappointment after Schalke stated their confidence at keeping highly-rated youngster Julian Draxler at the club.
The Gunners were widely reported to be in pursuit of Draxler last summer and again during the January transfer window, but a move failed to materialise.
And with the end of the season fast approaching, speculation has again been mounting over renewed efforts to bring the German international to the Emirates.
But according to Schalkes sporting director Horst Heldt, the 20-year-old will be going nowhere this summer.
He told Sky90: I believe that Draxler will stay with us.
Draxler has also been linked with other top clubs including Bayern Munich and last month left the door open to a possible move to the Allianz Arena.
Id prefer not to comment on all those rumours, he said.
Look at what happened with Manuel Neuer. He was 100 per cent convinced that he would never join FC Bayern but, after having played as a pro for five years, time made him change his opinion.
