Chelsea have been linked with a move for Juventus forward Paulo Dybala in the Italian and French press over the past few days.
Both the Blues and Tottenham are reportedly weighing up whether to sign the Argentinian international, with the player said to be available for around €50m (£43m) in the summer.
Dybala’s contract at Juve expires in 2022 so his price tag is relatively low, but supporters on Twitter don’t think Chelsea should consider making a move for the 27-year-old:
Don't want him

Great talent, not a Premier Legue type player IMO

Better to go all in for Haaland

Not convinced this would be a great deal, hasn't been the same since his collapsed deal a few years ago and we have more serious issues in the squad

STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY

No thank you

It is important to point out that Dybala has spent the last two months sidelined with a knee injury, but even before that, he wasn’t exactly in good form, having scored just twice in 11 league games.
The Argentine is undoubtedly a talented player but, with Chelsea desperately looking for a goal poacher, the Juventus star would simply not fit the bill. The club’s priority appears to be Erling Haaland and for good reason.
