Juventus take on Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, and Dybala commented on his admiration for fellow Argentinian Lionel Messi ahead of the clash, as well as his links to the Blaugrana, as per Football Italia.
"Luckily enough I have the opportunity to play with Messi for Argentina, and it is a great pleasure for me to learn from him as a teammate. I don't know what could happen in the future, I'm happy at Juventus, I feel at ease and this year I've made the decision to wear a shirt which means a lot in the history of the club [number 10]. I don't know what will happen in the future.
"Did Barcelona want me this summer? I don't know, no-one said anything to me. The club never came to me to say there was an offer on the table. As long as the club and the President [Andrea Agnelli] want me at Juventus, then that’s where I’ll be."
An official bid never materialised, though, for the young Argentinian international, who netted 11 goals and provided seven assists in Serie A last term—he already has five goals in three Italian top-flight games in 2017-18.
