Do t know why I'm not over the top about this deal. I feel like Dybala has the talent, it's just his age and temperament that worries me a bit, and hopefully we will give him the time to mature so he can grow into his role rather than be thrust into the deep end. Also, given the kind of wages we are intending to pay him, since a hes coming from Palermo seem pretty steep for a 21 year old. Beppe and Paratici clearly see him as a more finished article than some of us here, which is going to be interesting to see on the pitch in preseason.
25M is huge enough number to initiate everything you wrote and I would have agreed. 40M is a record sum for 1-year-of-contract-left-players. It's insane if you take a sober look.
I'll wait for the official numbers tho. There are probably some useless players involved in the deal lowering the price. Better be more than 1xGoldaniga

DYBALA E' DELLA JUVE - Come appreso in esclusiva da Calciomercato.com, la Juventus ha trovato l'accordo per portare Paulo Dybala in bianconero: per l'attaccante del Palermo, cinque anni di contratto da 2,2 milioni di euro a stagione a salire, più bonus (può arrivare a 2,8/2,9 milioni, fino a superare quota 3). La Juventus verserà nelle casse del Palermo 32 milioni di euro più sette legati ad alcuni bonus (uno riguarda il raggiungimento dei 20 gol da parte di Dybala): nell'accordo, all'interno dei bonus, rientra il passaggio di Goldaniga al Palermo (era in comproprietà tra i due club) e di un altro tesserato che verrà scelto più avanti.
2.5m going up to 3m in a year. For a 21 year old. Pogba didn't have that deal when he came here and he probably wasn't as highly rated as Dybala has been by the press and maybe some of us here. It's an exciting signing by the looks of it, but these numbers in the context of Juve seem to suggest that this guy is the finished article. And I'm curious to see that. Whatever I have seen off him at Palermo didn't suggest the kind of financial outlay we seem to be going for. I hope I am wrong and I'm glad we'll have a flashy young player taking up the #7 at Juve. That number is too cool to have been taken up by the likes that have used it in recent history.
I think it's got more to do with temperament than ability for me. Like for example, I think Perreyra shows that and he doesn't feel the burden of a big club despite being a relatively young player. Dybala comes in at 21 with the pressure of expectation, on the biggest transfer fee Juve have had in the last 7 years, on three times the wages he probably earns at Palermo? Surely, somewhere he's going to have to show maturity to get to grips with that and that's not always easy to do.
Of course, having the likes of Buffon and Pirlo in the dressing room will have that effect on him, Tevex too, but at the end of the day he's going to have to learn to not buckle under that pressure himself. I just hope he doesn't get overawed here because you have to be Comfortable in your mindspace to express your best football.

In transfer fee. Don't think that clause has anything to do with wages.

Just read Dybala already picked up his shirt number. Just like we predicted: #7
