Hi Eds,

The majority of media sources are reporting that PSG have made Julian Draxler available at £45 million. Surely he would be worthwhile going for if Coutinho does go.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't Klopp have a look at signing him in January?

Thanks for the hard work as always.

{Ed002's Note - You are confusing him with Brandt.}

The question you should ask yourself is why is Draxler available for 45m when he just arrived this Jan.

Possibly because PSG need to sell a few to comply with FFP. I think he would be a good signing personally unless he is a big problem off the pitch.

If Couts goes and we sign Draxler/ Insigne, Keita/ Seri and VVD/ Howedes. Then we will be a better team and probably won't have spent much money again. If we can keep Couts and get a couple of them in even better. It's not been an amazing window for us yet but still optimistic until it closes.

well Ed some sources say we were in for him in january but he chosen psg bcos of better contract and CL.

{Ed002's Note - I gues "some sources" are wrong.}

No problem Ed, thanks for the swift response. I read somewhere before that Klopp had an interest in him perhaps it was from his time at Dortmund.

In my opinion he is definitely a player with a lot of ability and would be a good option for us to consider if available at that price.
If i had a choice i would like us to go for Lorenzo Insigne from Napoli, scores and assists plenty, however i can't imagine Napoli being prepared to sell.

Klopp did enquire about Draxler and Brandt in January.
