Tottenham struck a deal with Juventus in 2019 for a £64.4 million signing, only for a deal to collapse due to image rights. Seven years later, the London club has the opportunity to sign the same player on a free agent. An attacking player who will be a massive “upgrade” from Richarlison. Now there are reports that a potential Paulo Dybala transfer to Tottenham is once again crumbling.
The Argentine world champion has a contract expiring at Roma this summer, according to Sky Sports, Dybala has signalled he wants to join the Premier League for the next challenge of his career. Even though Dybala is now 32 years old, he still has incredible technical qualities and experience from the big fights in buckets and buckets. Spurs have also had a historical interest in the Argentine, having struck a £64.4 million deal with Juventus back in August 2019. Which thus collapsed.

In addition to being available on free transfer, Dybala will be a major upgrade from the current No. 9. Richarlison. English Givemesport is convinced Tottenham should jump at the opportunity: “With Dybala ready to join, and Spurs looking for attacking reinforcements, this could be an obvious signing, seven years after it was originally planned.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Dybala will still have another season at Roma. Dybala has already returned to Argentina after the end of the season, while his agent, Carlos Novel, has remained in Rome to continue negotiations with the Giallorossi. According to the Italian newspaper, Roma and Dybala have discussed a one-year contract extension with a salary between 2 and 2.5 million euros, plus supplements.
Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini is convinced that Dybala will stay in the capital for one more season, playing in the Champions League with the Giallorossi in 2026-27: “I think he will stay and I have never doubted it,” Gasperini said after Sunday’s 2-0 win over Verona.
