Speaking on The Done Deal Show, journalist Dean Jones has shared what he knows about Paulo Dybala and his contract situation at Juventus.

The Argentine is coming towards the end of his contract in Turin, and there have been reports about a potential Bosman move to Spurs in the summer.

Jones says that not only would Tottenham have a look at him, but Dybala is also open to the idea of coming to the Premier League.

What’s been said about Dybala?

The journalist gave an update on Dybala’s situation.

“Yeah, Tottenham would have a look at him, there’s no doubt about that. I can’t see it happening this month. Tottenham and Dybala is one to look out for because there are obvious links there with Paratici and Conte. Dybala is open to the idea of coming to the Premier League. I wouldn’t say it’s likely, but if Juve are going to play silly games with him then he’s not going to have that forever,” Jones said.

Perfectly placed

If Dybala is to leave Juventus in the near future, then Spurs are perfectly placed to bring him to north London.

Yes, there have also been reports about Liverpool wanting him, but Dybala knows Fabio Paratici, and while he’s never played under Conte, the Italian is seemingly a fan of the Argentine, even asking him to switch national allegiances during his time as Italy boss.

Dybala is a fantastic player. He’s even been compared to Lionel Messi in the past, and if he becomes available, Spurs should be all over him like a rash.

This certainly seems to be a situation worth keeping an eye on.
