According to a recent report by Tuttosport, Juventus striker Paulo Dybala wants to switch clubs this summer despite being the face of the club’s new kit release. The same source has revealed that the Argentine talent held discussions with Juve boss Maurizio Sarri after returning from his summer holidays and has told the club about his desire to leave before the start of the new campaign.
Football.London has reported that Tottenham Hotspur have held initial talks over the possibility of signing the South American prospect for a club-record fee in this off-season.
Dybala’s Form Was On The Decline For Juventus Last Season
The 25-year-old had an unusual season with the Turin giants as he struggled to put in a consistent run of performances at the Allianz Stadium. However, he still ended up winning the Serie A title with Juve after making a total of 42 appearances for them last season, registering ten goals while grabbing five assists across all fronts. Dybala has also secured 23 caps for Argentina at the international level and has scored one goal for his country so far.
The Laguna Larga born sensation played second fiddle to Cristiano Ronaldo in the final third which could explain why he struggled to score goals consistently in the previous campaign. However, there is no denying that Dybala is a natural goal-getter when he is playing with confidence on the pitch.
What Will The Serie A Star Bring To The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Dybala has a lot of moves under his belt and possesses the ability to beat his marker using his pace and guile in the offensive end of the field. The Juve playmaker does not shy away from completing some lung-bursting dribbles in the opposition half.
He can also orchestrate openings for his teammates inside the opposition penalty area. However, the Argentine has to find the back of the net consistently if he wants to succeed in English football someday.
Dybala Keen On A Move Away From Turin: Huge Boost For Pochettino?
The Juventus number 10 fancies a summer move away from Italian football which could pave the way for Spurs to recruit him this summer. His desire to leave could be a massive boost for Mauricio Pochettino’s chances of landing him ahead of the new season. The acquisition of a striker of Dybala’s skillset will not only improve the quality of Pochettino’s first-team but will also add another dimension to the Tottenham frontline.
Let’s be honest; whenever Harry Kane is unavailable, this Tottenham side looks a little toothless in attack. With Dybala, Pochettino can fill in the void if/when Kane is absent. The Juve attacker can also lead the line with Englishman in his presence.
