“?AC Milan’s ex-manager and legend Arrigo Sacchi has criticised the club for their failure to pick up Paulo Dybala two years ago – this is after having seen the talented Argentine international fire in 20 goals in 40 games for Juventus in Serie A since signing for the club in 2015.
Dybala joined Juventus from Palermo at that time, and his red-hot form ever since (with a slight drop earlier this season) has attracted the attention of Spanish giants Barcelona. As well as scoring goals, Dybala has been creating them too. Over the course of the current campaign, he has already set up fifteen chances for his Juve teammates.

“If someone in Milan had heard when I advised them two years ago on the signing of Dybala, he would not be playing at Juventus now,” Sacchi said simply, in comments made to “?La Stampa.
Sacchi’s advice should have meant a great deal to the higher-ups in the Rossoneri. He won Serie A in his maiden season with the Italian giants in the 1987/88 campaign and followed that up with two European Cups in a row, creating a team which some call the greatest of all time.
He went on to lead Italy to a World Cup final in 1994, only furthering his reputation as one of the greatest managers ever.
Despite Barcelona’s supposed interests in the lethal forward, Dybala is expected to sign a new deal to commit his future to Juventus.
Fans of the club will be hoping that the Argentine can continue to bring them success after helping the side win the league title, Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana in his first season.
