As the January transfer window approaches, Paulo Dybala finds himself at the center of swirling rumors linking him to a potential move to Galatasaray. Despite the speculation, the Argentine star has made it clear that he has no intention of leaving Roma midseason and is even willing to restructure his current contract, which stands at 8 million euros plus 1 million in bonuses.
Roma resumed training today in preparation for their upcoming match against Milan on December 29th, with Dybala participating fully in the session. The only absentee was Cristante. While Galatasaray continues to press for a potential January transfer, Dybala remains focused on his commitments with Roma.
Galatasaray’s interest in Dybala was confirmed by their coach, Buruk, who stated, “His value is undeniable. Every coach would want him, but the management is evaluating the situation.” This comes after a meeting with Dybala’s agent, Novel, though no significant developments have emerged from these discussions. Some executives at the Turkish club are reportedly considering investing in other players instead.
As an alternative, Galatasaray has set their sights on Mikautadze. Buruk commented on this potential move, saying, “We need to keep things under wraps. I’ve been following him for three years.”
Dybala’s commitment to Roma was evident during the holiday season. He spent Christmas Eve with his family and several teammates, including Soulé, Angeliño, and Paredes. The day before, the entire squad attended Mancini’s wedding anniversary celebration, highlighting the team’s unity.
Roma’s coach, Ranieri, is keen on retaining Dybala, viewing him as an integral part of the team’s future. The player’s release clause of 12 million euros for foreign clubs becomes active again from January 1st, adding another layer of intrigue to the transfer saga.
