Paratici: ‘Dybala contract talks ongoing’
Juventus’ CFO Fabio Paratici claims talks to extend Paulo Dybala’s contract are ongoing and provides updates on the future of Alvaro Morata.
Both strikers are tipped to leave Turin in the summer with Dybala, who hasn’t reached an agreement to renew his contract expiring in 2022, while Morata’s loan may not be extended, according to reports in Italy.
“We have many options regarding Morata,” Paratici told Sky Sport.
“We can sign him on a permanent deal or extend his stay on loan. He’s given a lot to Juventus and we trust him. He is a serious guy and we’ve always believed in him.
“We talk to Dybala’s agent every week,” Paratici continued.
“Clearly, we can’t forget the moment we are living, and I am not only talking about football. One year ago, COVID appeared to be lasting just a couple of months.
“There have been steps forwards and backwards and now there’s a sense of negativity we can’t leave. We must be responsible for everything we do, not only in football."
Juventus face Genoa today with Nicolò Rovella who will play his first game against the Old Lady since completing his transfer in January. The 19-year-old has remained on loan at Genoa.
“We are happy to have signed him. He is a talented Italian footballer," Paratici said.
"He is a hard worker, and this is his most important quality. He is a smart guy, which will help him get far.”

That doesn't sound good. Maybe something is off with the translation?

For some reason I think It's for the best if him, Bonucci and Sandro leave.
Max wanted a revolution after Cardiff and for me I think those 3 players may of been amongst he ones he wanted gone.
Others from that era like Mandzukic, Pjanic, Khedira, Higuain and Matuidi are already gone so lets just let it die so we can rebuild again.

Bonucci is a better passer regardless. Of course it’s different though.
Ronaldo when he wants to pass is a better passer and does it with both feet. I’d say it’s a wash due to the fact Ronaldo doesn’t choose to pass near as often.
Morata is as good or better passing around the box. And definitely better on final ball passing. Dude has hit 11 assists in 2 of his 3 Juve seasons now. Dybala hasn’t gone over 9 in 6 seasons.
Dybala because he has participated in our build-up play more is better than anyone on this team passing to begin movements out of mid, but he’s never had particularly great vision in and around the box for passing in part because he often has tunnel vision for goal. If he was some great playmaker he wouldn’t be maxing out at 9 assists in a season. Especially not playing alongside Ronaldo and Higuain.

Of course it doesn’t. Which I said. But it does have a lot to do with passing around the box. You were talking about an “almost” assist, and how great a playmaker he is. And I agree he is our best playmaker operating deeper, but he loses that almost entirely in and around the box. He gets tunnel vision and rarely picks out good passes.
And that’s the difference between Dybala having 5-9 assists/year and De Bruyne having 18-25 assists/year
It also explains why Dybala attempted 33 shots at goal in 8 matches in CL 2017-18 season, and only scored once. Playing alongside Higuain. He also had 0 assists. That’s absolutely embarrassingly bad from our CAM/playmaker

This isn’t meant to bash Dybala. I think he’s a fantastic player. But I’d rather see him play as a goalscoring fox in and around the box. If we’re going to keep him, get us a KDB type, an actual playmaker for the mid, partner him with a forward that suits his style, and let Dybala do what he does best, bang in the goals with that wicked left foot.

I agree that Dybala is not an world class passer, but when he drops deep he’s still a better passer than all our central midfielders, which is more of a damning indictment of our mids than anything else.
He’s also a much better dribbler than Bentancur/Rabiot which helps us carry the ball forward through the middle.
