Agent confirms Dybala-Atleti talks

An agent of Paulo Dybala claims he has spoken to Atletico Madrid about the possibility of Palermo striker moving to the Vicente Calderon this summer.

The 21-year-old is expected to leave the Serie A side at the end of the season after refusing to extend his contract beyond 2016, but there are believed to be no shortage of suitors for his services.

“[Dybala’s other agent] Triulzi and I are working in harmony with [Palermo President] Zamparini,” Gustavo Mascardi told Tuttosport.

“At the moment I’m in Madrid. On Wednesday I was in Paris. During this time, I’ve spoken to Dybala on several occasions.

“Yes, it’s true [that I’ve advised him], I’m very close to his family, and yes [Atleti] and other top European clubs are interested in him right now.”

Dybala, who had also been linked with Barcelona, has scored 13 goals and laid off 10 assists in 30 appearances for the Rosanero this term.
