Julian Draxler (born 20 September 1993 in Gladbeck) is a German footballer who plays for FC Schalke 04.

Career

Draxler made his Bundesliga debut on 15 January 2011 in a 0–1 loss to Hamburger SV. At that time, he was the fourth youngest Bundesliga player ever.[1] One week later, in Schalke's 1–0 win against Hannover 96, he became the second youngest field player after Nuri Şahin to ever start a Bundesliga game.

On 25 January 2011, Julian Draxler came on as a substitute for Peer Kluge in the quarter finals of the DFB-Pokal against 1. FC Nuremberg in the second half of extra time. He scored his first goal for Schalke 04 in the dying seconds of the game to win the match 3–2 for his club.[2] He scored his first goal in the Bundesliga on 1 April 2011 against St. Pauli.[3]

Draxler opened the scoring in Schalke's 2011 DFB-Pokal Final victory over MSV Duisburg, volleying in from outside the area, scoring the first of what proved to be five unanswered goals for Schalke.[4]

On 9 August 2011, Draxler scored on his debut for the Germany U-21 side in the 4:1 win over Cyprus U-21 in a 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship qualifier.[5]

On 7 May 2012, he was called up into the provisional squad for the UEFA Euro 2012 senior side for Germany. He is one of two uncapped players in the provisional squad.[6]
