Paulo Dybala is furious with Juventus after the Serie A side postponed their planned talks to discuss a new contract for the reported Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur transfer target.
That’s according to Calciomercato, who note the Bianconeri have pushed back the meeting to debate the Argentine’s future in Turin. Dybala is out of contract at the end of the season, and it is increasingly likely that the striker now leaves the Allianz Stadium after seven-years.
The Old Lady enraged Dybala by delaying talks over his future in black-and-white. They are now on the cusp of a total fallout that would bring about his exit in a free summer transfer.
Inter Milan are paying close attention to the forward’s situation in Turin in hope of signing a rival’s star player. But the Nerazzurri would face strong Premier League competition for a deal. 90min cite at least five English teams as holding talks with Dybala’s representatives.
Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester City and United have each expressed an interest in a free transfer for Dybala to the Juventus vice-captain’s agent. However, the quintet also fear he does not fancy a move to England, having held out hope for a new Bianconeri deal.
Dybala furious as Juventus delay contract plans amid Arsenal, Tottenham talks
Juventus have boosted Arsenal and Tottenham et al’s hopes of a free transfer, though, by delaying talks with Dybala over a new contract, much to the 28-year-old’s frustration. The development even comes after TuttoJuve reported the Bianconeri had a new offer ready.
The Old Lady prepared a €7m-a-year (£113k-a/w) offer at the end of February to ward off interest from PSG and Barcelona. It was a step back from the €8m (£130k-a/w) plus €1.5m (£1.25m) bonus the Bianconeri had agreed with Dybala in October, per Corriere Della Sera.
Arsenal or Tottenham could jump at the chance of a free transfer for Dybala with a new Juventus contract unlikely. The 32-cap international – who Karl-Heinz Rummenigge calls ‘formidable’ and cost the Bianconeri €32m (£27m) – has 12 goals and six assists this term.
