"Where did you get in?"
We didn't see you go out ”.
Julian Draxler has probably never seen this nanar from 1984 directed by Philippe Clair.
Good for him but the title nevertheless resembles the course of the German international in the jersey of PSG for four years.
He arrived there with the label of the phenomenon sewn to the jersey.
Since then, almost every transfer window, PSG tries to stick a price, increasingly low, in order to sell it.
But how to buy a player who has disappointed a lot and who costs so much in salary?
Draxler had first seduced Unai Emery before paying, almost for everyone, after the comeback.
Same love-repulsion number afterwards with Thomas Tuchel.
For many, Draxler's fate was mapped out.
At the end of his contract, which ends in June, the starting drink at Camp des Loges seemed inevitable.
"It makes sense to speak of a big mess," Andreas Brehme told us, the former German international world champion.
Julian never exploited his potential.
It lacks the character to meet expectations at the highest level.
"
Obviously, Julian Draxler felt the urge to leave PSG, to move away from a club that paid him well but treated him so badly.
"I'm a little homesick, he admitted this week on the Sky channel.
But I haven't decided yet.
There is a lot of talk going on and I am focusing on PSG.
"
A match against Nantes in the image of its season
The second part of the declaration seems agreed but it is sincere: for Draxler, there is a world after.
The one that started with the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino on the Parisian bench.
The Argentinian has detected qualities in him that his predecessors no longer saw.
Since January, taking advantage of the absence of Neymar, the German has played seven matches in Ligue 1. And he is not, in the eyes of his coach, a man of the championship.
Pochettino brought him into play at Camp Nou before starting him last Tuesday in the return leg.
Even if his performance that day was not breathtaking.
Far from there.
But Draxler went from being plague-stricken to being a heart-to-be-seduce again.
PSG now want to extend it.
What Leonardo recently confirmed on France Bleu.
“There is Draxler, also at the end of the contract, underlined the sporting director.
There, we talked a little less but we'll see.
He is an important player whose situation we must clarify.
He has had fewer opportunities in recent years but he is an important player for the club ”.
Obviously, the PSG is also said cynically that replacing a player of this caliber who leaves free will inevitably cost him a transfer and that it is better to extend it.
Against Nantes, Draxler was still present at kickoff.
His first period resembled his season.
Neutral for a long time, even invisible, it appeared at the end.
At the end of a superb offensive movement, he receives a pass from Di Maria and adjusts Lafont for the opener.
His partners embrace him.
He again became decisive and appreciated.
For another three months or longer?
