And The Times reports that the Gunners could make another move for the 23-year-old having being knocked back several times in the past.

He could be available for around £32m.

The German World Cup winner arrived in the French capital in January for £35.5m from Wolfsburg.

But already he is said to have fallen out of favour with boss Unai Emery – and that could alert Premier League giants Arsenal and Liverpool.

Both are known to have an interest in the former Wolfsburg star, who at just 23 still represents an attractive purchase.

Neymar’s world-record has obviously hampered Draxler’s potential playing time.

And with the prospect of Monaco hotshot Kylian Mbappe also joining for £160m, the French club’s attacking options look pretty much set in stone.

On top of that, Neymar’s transfer could ultimately lead to Jurgen Klopp’s side going in for Draxler.
