Man Utd and Tottenham transfer blow with Paulo Dybala in talks over new £8.5m-a-year Juventus contract until 2025


JUVENTUS are in talks with Paulo Dybala over a new £8.5million-a-year contract that will keep him at the club until 2025, reports in Italy claim.

The Argentine came close to leaving Turin in the summer after Manchester United and Tottenham both made offers for the forward.

But Dybala remained in Italy under new manager Maurizio Sarri and has gone on to make 28 appearances, scoring 11 times.

He has only missed two games this term and according to Tuttosport, the Serie A champions are entering talks to tie down the 26-year-old for another five years.

Dybala is demanding £8.5m per season, and despite no official offer being made it is understood the club and player are working to find an agreement.

It marks an incredible U-turn for the versatile attacker, who was pursuing a move away from Juve just six months ago.

United had been willing to use Romelu Lukaku as a bargaining chip to sign Dybala, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side failed to strike an agreement.

Spurs were closer, as they attempted to complete the audacious swoop before August’s deadline.

But the move fell down over the player’s image rights.

Juve had been willing to flog him, as they tried to recoup some of the enormous amounts of money spent on the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Matthijs de Ligt.

But Dybala has since struck a formidable partnership with Ronaldo and Gonzalo Higuain with the trio netting 29 league goals between them.

Juve are three points above Antonio Conte’s Inter Milan, who lost their place at the top following three draws in their last four matches.
