Jurgen Klopp wants to sign Julian Draxler?

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is allegedly trying to persuade the club's board to allow him to bid for PSG winger Julian Draxler.

According to Transfermarketweb, German boss Klopp is a keen admirer of his fellow countryman, and wants to add the 24-year-old to the club's ranks this summer.

The source adds that the manager is doing his utmost to get permission to move for Draxler, with the club in a stable position to do so after the sale of Philippe Coutinho for a reported £142m.

Draxler signed for PSG in 2017 from Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg, the winger having also spent time with Schalke 04 before moving to France.

The German could join a Liverpool attack that includes Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, who starred as the Reds defeated Watford 5-0 on Saturday.
