Julian Draxler left Paris Saint-Germain after six years. The 28-year-old German has joined Lisbon's Benfica on a loan basis. The loan to the Portuguese club will cost 2.5 million euros. The contract also includes a buyout option after the season. Another German, Julian Weigl, has also left the Benfica team today and moved to Borussia Monchengladbach. Draxler was not in PSG's plans after Luis Campos became the club's sporting director. Benfica will play in the Champions League again this season.
