# Tottenham Hotspur: Pete O’Rourke makes Paulo Dybala claim

**Tottenham Hotspur have a good chance of signing Paulo Dybala if the Juventus attacker wants a move to an English club in the summer, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.**

### The Lowdown: Dybala’s contract at Juventus

The Argentina international is [out of contract in the summer](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/paulo-dybala/profil/spieler/206050), and to that effect, reliable journalist [Fabrizio Romano](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1505898174736904194) recently revealed that Juventus had a verbal agreement with the 28-year-old last October, but they have since gone back on their word over their proposal.

Following the new conditions, Dybala will leave the Turin club as a free agent, as he is now ready to hold talks with a list of potential suitors.

### The Latest: O’Rourke’s claim on Dybala

O’Rourke has tipped Tottenham to be one of Dybala’s top destinations.

Speaking with [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/87988037-tottenham-strong-possibility-that-phenomenon-joins-in-summer), he claimed: *“I think if there’s a chance that Dybala does come to the Premier League, I think there’s a real strong possibility that Spurs could be leading the hunt for him.”*

### The Verdict: Great deal for Spurs

Whilst Antonio Conte has one of the [world’s best strikers](https://www.whoscored.com/Statistics) at his disposal in Harry Kane, the Italian is rather short of alternative options in the event that his star forward gets injured.

As a result, Dybala could be the perfect addition to Tottenham’s squad. As a second striker this season, the Argentine has netted [11 goals in 20 games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/paulo-dybala/leistungsdaten/spieler/206050), illustrating his ability to play in a different formation to Kane, so his arrival would provide Conte with an excellent alternative.

Once hailed by international colleague Lionel Messi to have a [“bright future ahead of him”](https://www.espn.com/soccer/argentina/story/2656987/paulo-dybala-has-bright-future-ahead-of-him-lionel-messi), the Juventus forward has been renowned for his creative talent; and with a current Transfermarkt valuation of [£36m,](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/paulo-dybala/marktwertverlauf/spieler/206050) Tottenham will be receiving a bargain if they can secure him on a free transfer in the summer.
