Dybala waits for Roma as future remain in doubt as Chelsea finally agreed terms with the incredible star
Paulo Dybala is waiting to hear from Roma as endless transfer market rumours circulate around the Argentine star.
The 30-year-old forward has been one of the best players in the Giallorossi squad since his arrival on a free transfer two years ago, when he took a salary drop and put pen to paper on a three-year contract worth €4m net per season with no signing bonus, keen to join the club.
Dybala has continued to shine for Roma over the last 24 months and has attracted attention across Europe, with his €12m release clause giving interested parties a way to snap him up in the transfer market.
Dybala position
Page 10 of today’s Corriere dello Sport details how Dybala is currently enjoying his holiday in Miami, preparing for his wedding at the end of next month. In the meantime, he’s waiting to hear from Roma, unbothered by the various transfer market rumours.
The 30-year-old’s salary will rise to €7.5m net per season plus €2m in add-ons, a high figure for the club. He’d be willing to sign a new contract, possibly up to three years, to help spread out these costs for amortisation purposes. He is keen to stay at the club and is now waiting to hear from their directors.
Federico Chiesa has been left disappointed by Juventus and has reportedly put Roma at the top of his list should he depart this summer.
The 26-year-old Italian winger has just 12 months left on his contract with the Old Lady and is not convinced about the idea of signing a bridging contract with a lower salary than his current deal. He is also frustrated with the perceived differences between his treatment and that of Adrien Rabiot.
Fali Ramadani, the agent of Chiesa, has already started looking around for a new destination should his client leave Juventus this summer, holding talks with Napoli and Bayern Munich, but one club in particular have started to prove convincing.
Chiesa keen on Roma
Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com details how Chiesa was left impressed by a phone call with Daniele De Rossi recently and is growing increasingly tempted by the idea of a move to Roma this summer.
Ramadani will be in Trigoria next week to speak to the Giallorossi directors, who are interested in snapping up the talented Italian winger. His €40m price tag is considered excessive, so negotiations will be needed to try and iron out an agreement.
