Paulo Dybala rejects Manchester United transfer talk

Manchester United have suffered a setback in their pursuit of Juventus forward Paulo Dybala.

The former teammate of United midfielder Paul Pogba, has reportedly been a target for Jose Mourinho since the summer.

He scored the only goal of the game as Dybala’s Juve triumphed over Manchester United as they visited in the Champions League in October.

However he has played a less prominent role for the club this season as they have integrated new signing Cristiano Ronaldo since his arrival from Real Madrid.

Speaking to the Mirror, Dybala played down the chances of any move, saying: “I’m not thinking about the transfer market.

“Right now I’m really happy at Juventus and the focus is simply winning all the titles here.”

Despite Ronaldo grabbing most of the attention, scoring nine times for his new club, Dybala hopes to work well with the Portuguese.

“Ever since Ronaldo arrived, we have been, and we are, really happy together,” The 25 year old said.

“I think we have been doing well. We have scored really important goals for Juventus together.

“Cristiano arrived only recently, but we all know the importance that he has on everyone and we knew his style from before.

“We know how he plays and how he works. Of course, you have to make small changes, but we are happy and we are going to score a lot of goals together.”
