Could he be swapping the Parc de Princes for Elland Road?
Odds have been slashed as short at 6/4 on PSG star, Julian Draxler, joining Leeds in this transfer window.
Premier League opponents Tottenham (7/2) are the second favourites to sign the German international, with their north London rivals Arsenal, not far behind being offered at 5/1.
Draxler has spent three seasons in the French capital racking up 20 goals and 32 assists in 140 appearances but has recently struggled for game time.
This would be the second experienced international being added to the Leeds squad this summer following the signing of Rodrigo Moreno for £27m from Valencia.
The arrival of fellow German international Robin Koch earlier in the transfer window may be just the pulling factor for Draxler to join Leeds.
With Draxler’s versatility in attack and the ageing Pablo Hernandez still relied upon, the 26-year-old could end up the perfect replacement for the Spaniard.
A move to either of the Milan giants is also being rumoured with Inter Milan available at 15/2 and AC Milan at 10/1.
Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Victor Orta’s tour around Europe, chequebook in hand, looks to be stopping in Paris next. Julian Draxler was one of Europe’s most wanted players not so long ago, but this rumour doesn’t even come as a shock these days.”
“Leeds back in the Premier League and under the management of Marcelo Bielsa are an attractive prospect and at 6/4 there’s a realistic chance they’ll land another huge signing here.”
