Whisper+ Analysis

Authenticity (2/5): Fichajes at it again

Barcelona, renowned for their pursuit of Argentine players, have unexpectedly resurfaced with Paulo Dybala on their radar.

Spanish outlet Fichajes.net report that Barca are actively reconsidering his potential, as the Argentine continues to impress at Roma. However, they are known for their wild rumours, so there is still room for scepticism here.

Value (4/5): Bargain buy for proven quality

Dybala’s talent has never been in doubt, and with one more year left on his contract, Barcelona could launch a convincing bid in the summer. Although the Giallorossi’s asking price is still unknown, sporting director Florent Ghisolfi is certain to not let him leave for free.

Suitability (5/5): Argentine connection

Dybala is a proven playmaker with several noteworthy accolades under his belt. His technical ability, sense of vision and influence in the final third impeccably align with Barcelona’s style of play.

Upgrade (4/5): Potential game-changer?

If acquired, Dybala could serve as a pivotal figure for Barcelona. His experience in Europe and Italy is invaluable, and his ability to operate both as a playmaker and finisher might provide Barcelona with an extra edge.

Logic (4/5): Bold move in his 30’s

Despite entering the latter stages of his career, Dybala is still a challenge to be dealt with by opposing defences. This perhaps represents an opportunity for him to rediscover his creative best in an environment that has long celebrated Argentine talents.

Whisper+ Verdict: 19/25

The Blaugrana have the chance to sign a real world-beater, and it could signal a transformative moment.
