Draw them closer?

Hi, everyone.

Could you tell me whether the following sentence is correct? Can we use the word draw like that?

Pushing away your friends will only draw them closer to your enemies.

Thanks.

Pushing away your friends will only draw them closer to your enemies. It's correct but sounds a little 'off' since 'draw' is normally toward the speaker or the 'drawer'. Pushing away your friends will only drive / push them closer to your enemies.
