Chelsea interested in signing Juventus star Paulo Dybala for £50m

The Blues is reportedly interested in spending an excess of £40 million to land Juventus forward Paulo Dybala this summer. Moreso,  the 27-year-old’s contract is set to expire next summer in Italy and has only a five-goal contribution in 16 appearances this season.

According to the report,  Dybala is one of the players who could be sold this summer to allow for the Bianconeri to bring in new additions.

He has been sidelined since January due to a ligament injury and his time with the Old Lady could be coming to an end as early as this summer.

However, it is known that Chelsea is looking at bringing a new centre-forward this summer, with Dortmund’s Erling Haaland the number one target.

The club as suffered an attacking problem this season, a lack of final product has been the Blues’ downfall and a new striker this summer is inevitable.

Moreso,  reports suggested that Tottenham are also interested in him, with Jose Mourinho considering attacking reinforcements ahead of next term.
