Dybala at home. Here is who knocks on his door

Paulo Dybala is looking for a house. In the metaphorical sense, of course. Because the Argentine has a house that dominates Turin. And since yesterday he has returned to live there: he has returned from Florida and he himself has been keen to make it public, posting a photo from his residence with the dog Bowen, “my great friend”. Now all that remains is to find a team, take stock with the agent and set a training schedule. Beware: the order is strictly reverse, from a temporal point of view.

Meetings

—

Dybala will have two key meetings for its future in these hours. The first, only apparently less important, will be the one with his staff of trainers, to understand how to manage current events, a theoretically indefinite period in which he will have to train alone, without a team. It is very likely that the player decides not to stay in Turin, but chooses to go to train in a mountain location, perhaps even abroad. Then, the other vertex. Dybala will soon see his agent Jorge Antun and the intermediary Fabrizio De Vecchi, the man who most of all is moving to find an agreement with a new club. Dybala wants to understand, he wants to see the cards. First of all, he wants to understand why the agreement with Inter was not closed in his time, a destination that he had accepted with enthusiasm, after a courtship that lasted months and not weeks, complete with three written proposals presented by the Nerazzurri club. . Now Inter have their hands tied, because after the arrival of Lukaku the famous two transfers in attack would be necessary to free up space for Joya. Sanchez’s is not enough, even yesterday he experienced an important passage as we read on another page of the newspaper. And all this net of the absolute approval by the company, with the president Steven Zhang in the lead.

Situation

—

The truth is that this is an atypical market, in terms of timing and type of operations. Today the Italian team that is taking the most steps towards Dybala is Napoli. Under the track, in De Laurentiis’ head the charm of the Argentine coup is breaking through. After all, the engagement issue today is less problematic than the requests of the same player a month ago. The basis that Joya has substantially accepted – out of time limit – by Inter is that of the 5 million fixed part plus one million linked to actual appearances on the pitch, equal to at least 50%. And so now it is around this figure that anyone who wants to approach the Argentine can reason. Napoli is trying. But the track remains complicated: the question of image rights would be very hard to manage, an obstacle that is not at all trivial. Apart from Inter, Dybala is in José Mourinho’s plans and it is no mystery. But Rome has never returned to sink the blow after the meetings at the end of spring. Today he could go back to doing it. But only after completing the sale of Zaniolo to Juventus: to exclude that in Trigoria they take a step towards Joya before having sold Nicolò. Milan has other priorities today: one above all, De Ketelaere. This is why the Rossoneri have no longer followed up on their contacts 20 days ago. In Italy there is nothing else, if not the public and private appreciation of the Monza of Berlusconi and Galliani. But the track, for a thousand reasons, is not practicable. Much easier, however, that something can emerge from abroad. Dybala always hopes for Atletico Madrid, a club that Antun waved as a ghost at Inter Milan during his visit to the Marotta house a month ago. The truth is that now Paulo has to decide how to approach the market. Better, to a market that is not what he imagined. Getting involved, maybe signing for a year with an exit clause, could be the solution. Unless … unless time returns to play in favor of Inter. Who knows, maybe in two or three weeks the attacking market can take an unexpected turn. Because if it is true that Marotta told Antun to consider himself free from the commitment, on the other hand he also asked to be informed in case of real offers for the Argentine. He means that a thought, indeed a thought, is always there underneath.
