Arsenal target Julian Draxler should be recovered from injury in seven days time to resume playing for Schalke. But before that happens, will Arsenal or another club in Europe sign the highly-rated attacking midfielder?
Arsenal are understood to have had discussions with Schalke regarding a deal for Draxler, but details and evidence is few and far between.
In the meantime, the Gunners are interested in signing Cristian Tello on loan from Barcelona now that Aaron Ramsey is back on the injury list.
