G. Marrotta: Draxleris "Juventus" exchanged for money

"Juventus" club's executive director Giuseppe Marotta says that this summer Julian Draxler, who moved to "Wolfsburg", rejected the offer from the Italian champions because he was offered more money in his homeland.

The attacking midfielder was linked with a move to "bianconeri" throughout last season, but ultimately did not end up in Turin.

Watching the poor start of the season for "Juventus", Marotta still feels regret about the unsuccessful transfer of the German.

Last July he was ready to come to "Juventus", but then changed his mind and aimed to earn more money in Germany," - said the "Old Lady's" leader.

Instead of Draxler, the UEFA Champions League finalists from Milan, "Inter", acquired Hernanes for £15 million, but Marotta also admitted that the Brazilian was not their number one target.
