Arsenal Transfers News: Latest on Julian Draxler and Lars Bender Rumours

A pair of Bundesliga stars are the latest to hit Arsenal's transfer headlines this week following news the north Londoners are looking to seal deals for Schalke maestro Julian Draxler and Bayer Leverkusen's Lars Bender.

Serie A champions Juventus look likely to pose the biggest obstacle to the Gunners in the pursuit of Draxler, however, with Italian outlet Sports Mediaset reporting a deal could be agreed by Tuesday, per talkSPORT.

Juve made an offer for the Germany international earlier this summer only to see their bid fail, with talkSPORT stating that Schalke are seeking £22 million for their creative asset.
