Sources indicate that Juventus has made contact with the agent of Paulo Dybala concerning a surprising return to the club in the 2026-27 season. This development comes even as negotiations for a new contract with his current team, Roma, are underway.
Juventus Inquires About Dybala’s Situation
Dybala had a highly successful seven-year tenure with Juventus, securing five Serie A titles, four Coppa Italia trophies, and two Supercoppa Italiana titles. He also reached the Champions League final in the 2016-17 season before joining Roma on a free transfer in the summer of 2022.
Dybala’s current contract with Roma is set to expire at the end of the month. While the club has been in discussions to extend his stay, it’s understood that ‘La Joya’ would need to accept a reduction in his reported €7 million base salary from the past two seasons.
Reports suggest that Roma is currently offering Dybala, who will turn 33 in November, a net salary of €2.5 million per season. However, the player and his representatives are reportedly seeking €3 million per season plus bonuses for a one-year deal with an option for an additional season.
Despite these negotiations, Dybala and his agents have not ruled out other possibilities. According to recent updates, Juventus is among the clubs that have communicated with the player’s representatives to explore the financial aspects of a potential transfer. For the moment, these discussions are described as exploratory, and it remains uncertain whether Juventus will pursue this initial interest further.

Friday’s reports claim that Juventus have been in contact with the agent of Paulo Dybala regarding a sensational return to Turin in 2026-27 despite the ongoing negotiations over a new contract with Roma.
Report: Juventus Request Information on Dybala
Dybala spent seven trophy-laden careers with the Bianconeri, winning the Serie A title five times, the Coppa Italia four times, the Supercoppa Italiana twice and reaching the final of the 2016-17 Champions League before joining Roma on a free transfer in the summer of 2022.
Dybala’s current contract with Roma expires at the end of the month, but the Giallorossi have long been discussing a renewal with ‘La Joya’, who will have to accept a cut in wages from the reported €7m base salary he has been earning for the last two seasons.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma are currently offering Dybala, who will turn 33 in November, a net salary of €2.5m per season, while the player and his entourage are reportedly holding out for €3m per season plus bonuses. This would be for a one-year contract with an option to extend for a further season.
However, Dybala and his agents have not fully closed the doors to opportunities elsewhere, and according to Friday’s updates, Juventus are among the clubs who have been in contact with the player’s representatives to discuss the financial details of a potential deal.
For now, this has been described as an ‘exploratory’ call, and it remains to be seen whether or not Juventus will follow up on this initial sign of interest.
