Spurs could have been given the green light by Juventus to step up their pursuit of Juventus forward, Paulo Dybala, according to reports in Italy.

Calciomercato claim that Juventus have had enough of Dybala now and will actively look to move the Argentinian on. It comes in the midst of Dybala apparently being part of a group of Juve players who breached Covid-19 rules this season.

It is claimed Juventus will now look to end contract talks with Dybala, after previously being keen to tie down the forward to fresh terms.

That, of course, could open the door for Spurs to make their move. CM claimed a week or so ago that Spurs and Daniel Levy were apparently desperate to sign Dybala this summer.

Spurs would need to find big money for Dybala. However, given this contract situation, the actual transfer fee may be less than initially predicted by those at the north London club.

The forward is said to be on around £125k-a-week at Juventus. Of course, he may well demand more to move, meaning Levy might have to work his magic in the market again.

TBR View: Dybala could be the world-class talent that helps keep the likes of Kane

Spurs need to start winning things soon if they want to keep their best players like Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son. The signing of someone like Dybala, then, could well be a difference maker.

Dybala has long been considered one of the best players in Europe in terms of his position. The one thing he lacks is consistency, while his off field issues lately haven’t helped either.

Reports suggested earlier in the year that Dybala could be signed for around £47m. That is a bargain, and one Spurs should be looking to push over the line.
