Maximiliano Allegri has thrown Paulo Dybala’s future into doubts
In a post-Salernitana interview, Massimiliano Allegri cast doubt on Paulo Dybala’s future at Juventus. On Sunday afternoon, the Argentina international played a key role in his team’s 2-0 home win over the Serie A cellar dwellers.
Paulo Dybala opened the scoring with a stunning strike from inside the area just a few minutes into the game. After putting Juventus ahead early on, the 28-year-old came close to extending their lead, but in a one-on-one situation, he chipped the ball high over the bar.

With a spectacular header midway through the first half, star scorer Dusan Vlahovic put the game out of reach. Nobody at the Allianz Stadium expected that to be the final score.
Despite this, Juventus strolled to another landslide home victory, extending their Serie A unbeaten streak to 16 games. More crucially, for the first time since mid-January, Paulo Dybala has found the back of the net.
In the aftermath, Allegri threw doubt on the Argentine’s future.

“The rapport with Paulo and all the players is good. There are some exchanges of opinion, I am always rather direct, but I am like this for the good of the players, who know they have my faith and admiration,” he said.
“Paulo arrived as a kid from Palermo, he has become a great player. There’s no problem. I don’t know if he will be a Juventus player or not, that is a matter for the club.“
Dybala’s Juventus contract will expire at the conclusion of the season. Despite the club’s best efforts to secure his future at the Allianz Stadium, the player has yet to pledge his future to the club. Several big teams are on high alert because of his current circumstances in Turin. Inter are thought to be leading the race to get Dybala on a free transfer, with Premier League clubs circling in the background.
