Julian Draxler career history until 2019

This FM 2013 player profile of Julian Draxler shows a brilliant wonderkid, a lad that can slot right into most top European teams at the age of just 18. The big advantage of signing him early on is that, considering his young age, you will be able to shape his development according to your own will and needs but the bad news is that he doesn’t want to move at the start of the game, saying that he wants to continue his development at Shalke. Moreover, the club want a hefty 25 million for his transfer.

But he seems worth the effort. In my test save he remained at Schalke until 2019 but his value almost doubled and he made excellent progress overall. His skills could make him an ideal advanced playmaker but he should do an excellent job as a winger or as an inside forward as well. He’s a top quality FM 13 wonderkid but one that might be pretty expensive to acquire.

Best buy rating: 9.5/10
