Career

[edit]

Drexler played as a teenager for Bonner SC,[2] Alemannia Aachen,[3] and Bayer Leverkusen[2] before joining Rot-Weiß Erfurt in 2010.[4] He made his debut for the club in September of that year, as a substitute for Tino Semmer in a Thuringia derby against Carl Zeiss Jena which Erfurt won 2–1. He finished the 2010–11 season with four goals in 19 appearances.[5] He scored eight goals in 34 appearances in the 2011–12 season[5] and four goals in 28 appearances in the 2012–13 season.[6]

In July 2013, he signed for Greuther Fürth, where he spent the 2012–13 season,[4] scoring a goal in 11 competitive matches.[2] He also scored four goals in five matches for the reserve team.[2] Then he joined VfR Aalen for the 2014–15 season.[4] He scored one goal in 26 competitive appearances.[7] In the following season, he scored nine goals in 32 competitive appearances.[5] He then joined Holstein Kiel for the 2016–17 season.[4] During that season, he scored seven goals in 35 appearances.[8] During the 2017–18 season, he scored 14 goals in 34 appearances.[5] This includes two goals in two appearances in the DFB Pokal and an appearance in the Promotion playoff.[5]

Drexler signed with Midtjylland for the 2018–19 season. The transfer fee paid to Holstein Kiel was reported to be €2.5 million.[9] However, during the same summer he was transferred again to 2. Bundesliga side 1. FC Köln for a reported fee of €4.5 million.[10]

On 21 July 2021, he agreed to join Schalke 04, newly relegated from the Bundesliga, signing a two-year contract,[11] which was extended by a further year due to Schalke's promotion in 2022. On 14 November 2023, the contract was extended until 30 June 2025.[12] On 4 April 2025, Schalke 04 announced that he would retire from professional football at the end of the season and would become a youth assistant coach for the club.[13]
