We have only just entered the home of the season and it was already a campaign Juventus fans should forget.
The old lady never really looked like setting up a serious title defense. Their pursuit of a first Champions League trophy since 1996 again ended abruptly with Porto knocking out the last 16, and to make matters worse, the club’s hierarchy recently admitted their intent cut ties with pauo dybala.
The Argentine striker has become one of Serie A’s Most exciting players since joining from Palermo in 2015, but Juve seem happy to benefit from Dybala and have confidence in someone else. We’re not going to mention names, but the eagle eyes below you may notice a cleverly hidden clue as to who the gamer is anywhere in this article …
Unfortunately, Juve’s loss is someone else’s win and 90 Minutes looked at the clubs associated with a move for the exciting striker and analyzed the pros and cons of each side before choosing the club he was best for suitable is.
Tottenham’s interest in Paulo Dybala dates back a few seasons Jonathan Moscrop / Getty Images
Advantages: If he’s lucky, he might one day call himself the Carabao Cup winner. Seriously though, Tottenham has some outstanding attacking opportunities to play with and there are a number of international peers to help him settle in.
Disadvantage: Spurs are hardly guaranteed Europa League football, no matter Champions League Soccer. Dybala is too good a talent to play in a club that isn’t even a leader in its own town.
Stylistic fit: Shocking. Within six months he would be Steven Bergwijn part two. Fifteen years ago a player like Dybala would have had success on a team led by Jose Mourinho, but these days the Portuguese tactician is a completely different beast.
Dybala luck – 1/10: He would no doubt be playing regular football if he switched to Spurs, but the kind of football he was supposed to be playing just wasn’t going to get the best out of him.
Arsenal have been linked with a move for Paulo Dybala in the past few days Stefano Guidi / Getty Images
Advantages: A chance to showcase his stuff in the Premier League in a club where he is advertised as a savior.
Cons: Copy and paste everything from the Spurs Cons list.
Stylistic fit: Mikel Arteta is still trying to strike the right balance with his Arsenal team and all too often the game plan seems to be “defending as well as possible and then hoping that Bukayo Saka or Martin Odegaard will do something good”. Not ideal.
Dybala Luck – 2/10: It would be an incredible coup if the Gunners made this one, but with Dybala at an age where he should hit his prime, he can’t afford to have two or three years in Arsenal wants to build a team in midfield that can challenge at the top end of the Premier League.
A move to Inter would not go down well with Juve fans Soccrates Images / Getty Images
Advantages: A move to Inter would NOT go down well with Juve believers, but isn’t that exactly what you want when a club has decided that you can no longer live up to the requirements?
Disadvantage: He’s already won everything there is to be won in Italy and if he’s hoping to add a Champions League medal to his mantelpiece, Inter is probably not the place for him.
Stylistic fit: Despite the fact that he’s been settling into Antonio Conte’s thoughts lately, Christian Eriksen’s signing really didn’t go according to plan and Dybala could be just the upgrade they need.
Dybala luck – 3/10: Would he do it? We’re not sure, and despite the fact that Inter are on the rise, there are far more attractive moves out there.

Advantages: Chelsea appear to be an up-and-coming team and with Thomas Tuchel starting to get the most out of his star-studded squad, the blues could be a force to be reckoned with next season.
Disadvantage: Creative midfielders are the last thing Chelsea need right now. With Mason Mount, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz already on Tuchel’s squad, regular football is anything but guaranteed when Dybala moves to West London.
Stylistic Fit: Tuchel still finds his feet at Stamford Bridge so it’s hard to say how Dybala would fare at Chelsea, but early signs suggest the Juve forward would thrive under the German’s leadership.
Dybala luck – 4/10: Chelsea seem to be a perfect match for Dybala. There is only doubt that he would be in the first team and get out of the first team all the time as Tuchel tries to make everyone happy.
If any of the above players carry on in the summer it might be a different story, but right now it just doesn’t seem like a sensible option.

Advantages: Regardless of how long they haven’t been crowned Premier League champions, Manchester United will always be one of the most attractive clubs in England.
The Red Devils seem to be slowly regaining their status as one of the best teams in English football and Dybala could help them return to their former glory.
Cons: The pressure to produce at a club the size of United is enormous, and a number of notable players have tried to rebuild their careers after the Old Trafford nightmare spell. Dybala is almost at that stage so joining United would be a gamble.
Stylistic fit: Pretty good to be fair. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team is heavily dependent on Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes. If Dybala could establish himself as the club’s first choice right-forward, he would be a perfect fit.
Dybala luck – 5/10: If everything went according to plan, there aren’t many better steps for the Argentina international – but it’s a big one, but.
Paulo Dybala has been linked to a move to Barcelona in the past Michael Steele / Getty Images
Advantages: Play for one of the biggest teams in Europe and meet international team-mate Lionel Messi.
Disadvantage: He plays for one of the biggest problems in Europe and may not be able to bond with Messi if he leaves at the end of the season.
Stylistic fit: On paper, you’d look at Barcelona and think Dybala would thrive there, but Philippe Coutinho’s disastrous move to Camp Nou should be a warning to the Juve forward. They are no longer the team they used to be and Dybala would not have time to find their way around Spain.
Dybala luck – 6/10: Despite all of the drawbacks listed above, Barcelona will always be a big draw – especially for South American players – and the opportunity to bond with Messi and almost certainly expand their trophy collection will always be an attractive proposition.

Advantages: Play with some of the best players in the world, win tons of trophies and maybe even make some money if he’s lucky.
Cons: 12-year-olds with pictures of Cristiano Ronaldo as an avatar on Twitter, saying something about farmers …
Stylistic fit: As soon as the news came that Dybala was on his way out of Juventus, it screamed “PSG” He will achieve absolute hatred success every season in Ligue 1 and soon re-establish himself as one of the best attacking talents in Europe.
Dybala Luck – 9/10: Who wouldn’t want to make a lot of money playing with some of the best players in the world and getting trophies every two weeks?
