Paulo Dybala could be Chelsea’s next acquisition, according to reports from “Tuttomercatoweb” on Monday.
The London club has shown significant interest in the Argentine forward, setting its sights on his release clause, which will be available until January 15.
The London club is said to be in advanced talks with Roma and is ready to meet the 15 million euros, which is the value of Dybala’s release clause. Chelsea’s efforts to secure his services have intensified, with direct contacts already made with the player’s representatives.
Mauricio Pochettino considers Dybala a key addition to his squad for the upcoming season. The 30-year-old Argentine has made a noticeable impact on Italian football since joining Serie A, joining Roma in 2022 as a free agent after a long spell with Juventus.
During the current season, Dybala has scored 6 goals and provided 6 assists in 17 appearances across all competitions, showcasing his high level of play. His career in Italy has been successful, winning five Serie A titles with Juventus, establishing himself as an excellent player on the European stage.
Chelsea, aiming for further reinforcements to increase squad competition and remain competitive at all levels, is seen planning to officially announce their interest in Dybala in the coming days, while Roma is yet to decide whether to let go of a player with such a profile before the expiration of his current contract in 2025.
