juventusvibe? Isn't that the new sex toy in the Juvestore?
Even more baffling that he didn't immediately sign it. This is on him and his agent.
Exactly. You could make the case that Dybala had Juve's backs against the wall for attacking talent with Chiesa down and Ronaldo out. But their rejection of a reasonable contact likely added motivation to seek alternatives and then suddenly they saw Vlahovic potentially coming their way.... an arguably much better thing. And if they could negotiate that first, let's not be surprised that Juve economics changed and they changed their stance.
Love Dybala and all, and don't fault him for all his injury absences. But as a 28-year-old who wasn't quite fully dependable, building your franchise around him didn't make much sense anymore. And as great as a Dybala-Vlahovic partnership might be for the future, the combined financial burden would have left our midfield looking even more like dog doo doo to feed the attacking talent.
