Paulo Dybala bids Juventus fans an emotional farewell in heartfelt Instagram post

Juventus forward Paulo Dybala has released an emotional post as he prepares for his final home game for the club ahead of a summer exit.

Dybala is out of contract this summer and will leave the Allianz Stadium as a free agent after a trophy-laden seven years in Turin.

He could make his final home appearance on Monday night when Juventus host Lazio with the hosts having already secured Champions League football next season.

Dybala has not yet chosen his next club but reports in Italy suggest the forward is keen on staying in Serie A with Inter Milan reportedly leading the chase. 

But that has not deterred the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham who remain interested in bringing him to the Premier League. 

The 28-year-old reached out to fans of the Old Lady to thank them for the support they’ve shown and conceded that he didn’t expect to leave the club so soon.

‘It is difficult to find the right words to greet you, there are so many years and so many emotions involved, all together,’ said the Argentina international in an emotional Instagram post on Sunday. 

‘I thought we would have been together even more years, but fate puts us on different paths.

‘I will never forget everything you made me experience, every game, every goal.

‘With you I grew up, I learned, I lived and I dreamed.

‘It has been seven years of magic, 12 trophies and 115 goals that no one will take away from us. Never.

‘Thank you for supporting me in difficult times. Thanks to those who have accompanied me over the years: from the first to the last, from the fans to the people who work within the club, everyone, coaches and teammates, employees and managers.

‘Wearing this important jersey together with the captain’s armband has been one of the greatest pride of my life, which I hope to show to my children and grandchildren someday.

Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi is reportedly eyeing up a free transfer move for Dybala

‘Tomorrow will be my last match with this shirt, it’s hard to imagine, but it will be our last goodbye. It will not be easy, but I will enter the field with a smile and my head held high, knowing that I have given everything for you.’

Despite a stuttering season for Juventus, Dybala has notched 15 goals and six assists in 37 games.

According to ESPN, Newcastle United and Arsenal have both made enquires for the Argentine in addition to the interest from Manchester United and Tottenham.

But it is Inter Milan that appear to be in the driving seat with coach Simone Inzaghi looking to pair Dybala up with compatriot Lautaro Martinez in a new-look attack next season.
