Liverpool drops pursuit of Argentina star

Liverpool will not be moving for Juventus ace Paulo Dybala. Paulo Bruno Exequiel Dybala is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Italian club Juventus and the Argentina national team.

The Argentine hitman has been linked with a summer switch to Anfield, amid reports in Italy that the Merseysiders’ were preparing to break the bank with an £80million move. But Dybala, who scored 26 times for the Bianconeri last season, is not a target for Jurgen Klopp, reports the Liverpool Echo. Liverpool have been considering their options in the transfer market since a £53million deal for Lyon’s Nabil Fekir collapsed early last month.

After beginning his career in Argentina with Instituto de Córdoba in 2011, he moved to Italian club Palermo in 2012. He played three seasons for Palermo, two in Serie A and winning Serie B in 2013–14. In 2015, he joined Juventus for an initial fee of €32 million and has since made over 100 appearances for the club, winning the double of Serie A and Coppa Italia in each of his three seasons. He has twice been named in the Serie A Team of the Year. Dybala made his senior international debut for Argentina in 2015 and was chosen for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
