The 23-year-old will reportedly get a pay rise to £6.5million-a-year which will see him equal the club's top earner, Gonzalo Higuain, who signed in the summer for £75million.

It would take a quite extraordinary bid for the Italian side to let him go, potentially more than the £89million Manchester United paid for midfielder Paul Pogba in the summer.

Dybala started his career at Argentinian side, Instituto, before joining Palermo. Since joining Juventus in the summer of 2015 for around £23million, Dybala has cored 29 goals in all competitions.

During the 2015-16 season, Dybala made his first appearance for the senior Argentina team, coming on as a sub against Paraguay in a World Cup qualifier.
