A good opportunity for Draxler, to progress of stagnation at a high level after two years, moreover, on the central position in the midfield, which was withheld at Schalke him, though he there not only the shirt number after like a “tens” would have been.

The successor De Bruynes, offers him the chance, perhaps still to be the star, which some want to see in him. Draxler is indeed become world champion with the national team, had played in Brazil only an unimportant minor role; similar to the previous season at Schalke when he had to contend with more injuries than with opposing defenders.
Also, coach Joachim Loew calls for the future benefits that are the immense talent of the young but already experienced industry professionals, which has almost 120 Bundesliga matches and 15 internationals contested. "This enormous potential it has to exploit permanently, the hope and I already expecting me," Loew said the "Kicker".
The romantics among fans may be sad. Schalke loses a role model; a boy who was fourteen years in the team, which debuted in the pros as a teenager at the age of seventeen, and became one of the biggest hopefuls in the history of the traditional clubs. Often enough Draxler Schalke had called affair of the heart.

After his contract extension in spring 2013. Schalke sent several small trucks through the Ruhr area, equipped with billboards, which should suggest soft factors than hard facts. "With pride and passion by 2018" announced the supposed flagship Schalke large area, even in Dortmund, the city of archrival. This action appears to be further evidence that such confessions in the football business are part of the never-ending show in retrospect. Only those who closes this knowledge, marvels at the change Draxler.
Yet appear on the boulevard comments like "commerce instead Heart". That rhymes with beautiful and true to some extent even. But the recent transfer coup provides no reason to be sentimental. Already at the conclusion of the new agreement, the cooperation was not seriously applied for a period of another five years. Of the participants, no one expected that love would be as long as more values such as fame and money.

The contract contained a release clause that allowed the player to the club without asking to leave within a certain time, if another club paid at least 45.5 million euros. Within the current transfer window this period had expired, so freely negotiate the release. Schalke would require the change can prevent, but agreed, although the now overdue release considerably lower.
This behavior does not exactly sure that the club Draxler trusts a role that is worth more than 35 million euros plus benefits that depend on the future performance of the VfL Wolfsburg. Schalke can use the money. The club area has itself invested about thirty million euros in transfer fees, but against only thirteen million financed through sales. In addition, the Royal Blues not participate for the first time after three years on the Champions League. Like once when changing the goalkeeper Manuel Neuer to Munich also Draxler's departure not only benefits the players.
