Arsenal and Chelsea are among the clubs who have been offered the chance to sign Paolo Dybala in the summer.
The 28-year old’s current contract with Juventus is ending at the end of the season, and talks over an extension have collapsed.
He had agreed terms om a new five tear contract worth around £7 million a year before Christmas, but, when Juventus then reneged and tried to offer him a reduced salary and bonuses, talks broke down.
Now his agents have been in contact with all the major Premier League clubs, as well as PSG and Inter Milan in a bid to find him a ne club for next season.
Among some of the Premier League clubs there is some scepticism that he is going to leave Turin at all, because of his continued value to Juventus where he is vice-captain.
Instead, some regard it as a negotiating tactic to get Juventus back to the table.
