the agent leaves Istanbul. The doubts and the role of Rome

Carlos Novelthe agent of Paulo Dybalaleft Istanbul, where he met Galatasaray and returned to Spain where he lives. Now, having received the rich offer for his client, everything is in the hands of Roma and the Turkish club because the clause with which Paulo could free himself is not active until January 1st. So: either they sell it from Trigoria or nothing happens with it.

Dybala between Roma and Galatasaray, all doubts

In all this there are some doubts still to be clarified because the situation is anything but defined. First of all the technical aspect of the story: Can a team that, to date, is closer to the relegation zone than to the European one, get rid of its best player in January? Second doubt: Is Dybala so convinced that he wants to go to Türkiye and his wife Oriana Sabatini with him? There are family projects, there are jobs on the line between Italy, Argentina and Miami: things are not that simple. Third doubt: Galatasaray, who offered a very rich contract for Dybala worth 10 million per season, intend to spend almost nothing on the price tag. And what will Roma do? Fourth doubt: if the negotiation takes a long time and the automatic renewal is triggered, when will the player be worth it? The feeling, as filtered through market circles, is that either everything closes before New Year’s Eve or we talk about it again after January 15th, also based on Roma’s ranking and their possible run in the cups. Because in the 1-15 window the 12 million clause is active which, to date, appears off the market. This is why the final word not only has not yet been written, but the pen has not even been picked up. Meanwhile Paulo thinks about the pitch: today Sampdoria is there, two years ago the best day of his life with the victory of the World Cup. Not as an absolute protagonist, but with a penalty scored in the final. Not a detail.
