The Ligue 1 champions boss Thomas Tuchel is considering using new signing Thilo Kehrer in midfield, which would further reduce Draxler’s chances for minutes this season.
The 24-year-old joined the Ligue 1 champions from Wolfsburg in January 2017, having left Schalke 18 months earlier, but he could now return to the Bundesliga.
Borussia Dortmund and Schalke are both interested in the German international, with only Schalke making contact about a possible summer deal.
