It’s an unlikely turnaround. For several weeks, Paulo Dybala has been talking to the Saudi club Al-Qadsiah. Roma even agreed to part ways with their player and an agreement was very close to being reached. The Argentinian was supposed to sign a 3-year contract and receive a salary of 15 million euros net per season. But finally, against all expectations and while Roma was already looking for a replacement, the player decided to do an about-face.
On his Instagram account, the 30-year-old striker published a message to formalize his decision to stay: “Thank you Roma… See you Sunday”. He did indeed refuse the Saudi proposal and will still play in Italy this season. According to Sky Italyhis choice is motivated by the love he has for the club and the supporters. He has already informed his management of his choice. And his decision has been publicly welcomed by his partner as well as several players including the former Parisian Paredes.
