Dybala set for Roma contract talks as clause expires

Paulo Dybala’s agent is due to meet Roma director Florent Ghisolfi to discuss a contract extension for La Joya, who has a €12m clause expiring on Wednesday.

Dybala’s agent, Carlos Novel, is expected to meet Roma director Ghisolfi at the end of the January transfer window, according to the latest report from Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Argentinean’s contract at the Stadio Olimpico runs out in June, but three more appearances will automatically extend his stay by one more year.

Dybala earns €6m per season, and the automatic contract extension is under the same conditions.

Roma do not seem inclined to offer Dybala the same wages, but Novel and Ghisolfi will discuss the striker’s future in-depth next month.

Dybala’s contract still includes a €12m clause, which expires at midnight on Wednesday.

Galatasaray opened talks with the Argentinean at the beginning of January, and Roma were willing to listen to offers. However, La Joya has taken centre stage in recent weeks and will start his seventh consecutive match on Friday against Genoa, when he will make his 100th appearance for the Giallorossi.
