Juventus Have Officially Signed Argentine Sensation Paulo Dybala

In a day of ups and downs for Italian Champions Juventus - one that has seen them lose start defender Giorgio Chiellini ahead of their Champions League Final clash with Barcelona - the team has announced that they have officially signed Paulo Dybala from Palermo.

Dibble was the most sought after young player in all of Serie A this year, scoring 13 goals and adding 10 assists in 34 league appearances. Tired comparisons to established Argentine greats such as Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero aside, Dybala is easily one of the most exciting talents in the world.

Palermo’s owner had initially slapped a 40 million euro price tag on the boy, and no one was laughing. On that note, Juventus have shrewdly acquired the 21-year-old for €32 million, “with a potential extra €8 million to be added on if certain performance-related targets are met.”  

Dybala will feature in the 2015/16 Juventus side, and will not play in this Saturday’s Champions League Final.
