Why didn't anyone pay Dybala's clause?

He has yet to turn thirty, 18 goals scored in the last season: why has nobody paid Dybala's clause?

Paulo Dybala stays at Roma . Lupa fans can breathe a sigh of relief, Joya will wear yellow and red number 21 again next season.

The double clause that would have allowed another club to take Dybala away from the capital for a small amount, in fact, has now expired.

But why has no one actually come forward with Roma?

THE DYBALA CLAUSE

How did Dybala's clause work? An Italian club that wanted to buy the Argentine would have had to pay 20 million euros into Roma's coffers.

However, the Giallorossi club had the possibility of deactivating this clause automatically, bringing Dybala's salary from 3.8 to 6 million euros net per year .

Clause even more convenient for a foreign company, given that in that case 12 million would have been enough to take Dybala away from Rome. And the yellow and red club could not have opposed the transfer in any way, provided that Joya had decided to accept any offer. Both clauses expired at midnight on July 30, 2023.

WHY HAS NO ONE PAID FOR THE DYBALA CLAUSE?

Dybala, who has yet to turn thirty, played 38 games last season, scoring 18 goals in the league, Coppa Italia and Conference League.

So why didn't any club try to snatch him from Roma? It is probable that in this sense the many physical problems accused by Dybala during the last few years at Juventus weighed , problems which, moreover, were among the reasons that prompted the Juventus club itself not to renew his contract.

Furthermore, many continue to have doubts about Dybala's best tactical position : second striker, attacking midfielder, striker? Doubts that perhaps have advised someone not to sink the blow.

Furthermore, Dybala, in the event of a transfer, would probably have asked for a much heavier salary than the 3.8 million euros currently paid to him by Roma.

Finally, we have to consider the will of Dybala who immediately established an excellent relationship with fans, teammates and above all with Mourinho in the capital. Not a detail after the last difficult seasons in Turin.
