He’s a magician with the ball, he’s creative, quicky, tricky and hard-working. And he belongs to Juventus. But not for long. According to reports from Italy, contract negotiations between Paulo Dybala and Juventus have broken down, clearing the way for the player to walk away when his current deal expires at the end of June.The player’s entourage arrived at Continassa, Juventus’ training centre on Monday morning to resume negotiations regarding the player’s stay with the Turin club, but they left the premisses two hours later with no progress made whatsoever.Friday, 22.30: (2.75) Ghana (2.75) Nigeria (3.00)You’d think that Juventus would have secured their star player and tied him to a new long-term contract, considering his ability. But there is a problem, a big one. It’s Dybala’s recent injury record. He has already missed 15 games this season, leaving Juventus directors worried that perhaps making Dybala a centre figure of their long-term future might not be such a good idea. Although there was a verbal agreement in place that the Argentine would sign for a salary in the region of $9 million plus another $2 million in potential bonuses. But, since the former Palermo player was kept out of some crucial fixtures, the money offered has been reduced, much to player agents’ annoyance.Paulo Dybala is set to leave Juventus as a free agent in the summer after failing to agree to a new deal, per multiple reports pic.twitter.com/vZpx2VWjye— B/R Football (@brfootball) March 21, 2022 With the 28-year-old star already in his last six months of contract, he is legally allowed to speak to other clubs without making any offers to Juventus. If anyone is willing to make Dybala their star, all they have to do is make him a satisfactory contract offer.In previous months, clubs like Inter, Tottenham, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have all been credited with interest. Will they make a move now or bide their time? And will Juventus decide that it would be foolish to let such a talented player leave?
