Tottenham could see former boss Maurico Pochettino come back to haunt them, with reports claiming the former Spurs boss wants to bring Paulo Dybala to PSG.

Tuttosport believe Dybala is of interest to Pochettino, who is due to be confirmed as the boss of the Parisian giants in the coming days.

Dybala, 27, has long been linked with a move away from Juventus but remains in Turin. Indeed, 90Min claimed just this month that Spurs were among the clubs who Juve had apparently sounded out over a potential deal for the forward.

The Argentinian has struggle for form this season, hitting just one goal in both Serie A and the Champions League. Alongisde that, he’s only started five league games as AC Milan threaten to dethrone the Turin giants as kings of Italy.

Pochettino, then, could well look to bring Dybala to Paris if these reports are to be believed. The former Spurs boss, it seems, looking to make an instant splash in the market while also dealing a potential blow to his former club.

Always a tough deal to do anyway, PSG the likely option – TBR View

Dybala has been spoken about in nearly every transfer window it seems for the last three or four seasons. Spurs, too, have been mentioned on more than one occasion, including when Poch was in charge.

But PSG has always seemed the likely destination for Dybala. He is on huge money in Turin for a start, with PSG one of the only clubs likely to fund a deal for both the fee and wages needed.

Tottenham will move on here, it was always an unlikely deal anyway.
