Jorgen Antun, the agent of Paulo Dybala, is spending some time in Italy and attended the recent game between Sampdoria and Roma. He’s slated to have a summit with the club’s hierarchy to discuss the future of his client, who has a low release clause in his contract.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, there are no indications of a summer departure at this stage. On the other hand, foreign clubs can potentially poach him for just €12M if the star signs off on it. Instead, the Giallorossi have more control over a move to other Serie A sides. They can neutralize the €20M fixed sum by raising his wages.
Per Corriere dello Sport, Roma wants to keep Dybala for a combination of sports and commercial reasons. However, his representative might ask for some guarantees to ensure it happens. The permanence of José Mourinho and the qualification for the Champions League could be factors.
La Lupa might attempt to remove the release clause. The front office would inevitably need to beef up his salary to achieve that. The attacker settled for €4.5M per year after the negotiation with Inter collapsed. According to Spanish outlet Don Diario (via OneFootball), Real Madrid have reached out to his entourage to test the waters.
Our Take on Roma and Dybala
The structure of the contract is inevitably a threat but, usually, where there’s a will there’s a way. Everything ultimately comes to what it wants to do. The chain of events that could lead to a departure, which would be stunning considering how well he bonded with the Giallorossi, has yet to start. There are good chances it never will.
