Schalke midfielder Julian Draxler is in Munich today to visit the same doctor who conducted a medical for Mesut Özil before his transfer to Arsenal towards the end of the summer transfer window.

Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt is the doctor in question but unfortunately he isn’t doing a medical because Draxler is moving to Arsenal (yet), it is just to see when he can start training with a ball again.

Aage Fjortoft reveals the news

This is all according to well-known journalist Jan Aage Fjortoft who tweeted the news this morning.

I understand Draxler is in Munich today to see Dr. Müller-Wohlfahrt. He will tell Draxler if he can start training with ball again

However, these medicals test could indicate to Arsenal whether it is worth trying to bring the talented German into the club during the final days of the transfer window.

Could he stay or could he go

Hypothetically, if Draxler passes these tests with flying colours and can return to training sooner than expected it may force Arsene Wenger to push this deal through earlier than expected.

Although, on the flip side of the coin. If Draxler is not going to be fit for a while then it will likely make Wenger look elsewhere to booster his squad in January.

Draxler joining the Gunners may have to wait, as is expected, until the summer but a lot could rest of these medical tests.
