# Tottenham Hotspur: Spurs make Paulo Dybala enquiry

**According to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport, via [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/tottenham-enquired-club-star-need-swap-deal-potential-important-player-sacrifice/), Tottenham Hotspur have made an enquiry to Juventus over Serie A star Paulo Dybala – with the report touting a possible swap deal between the two clubs.**

Dybala, who has missed a fair amount of matches this season through injury ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/paulo-dybala/verletzungen/spieler/206050)), is reportedly back on Tottenham’s radar as links [continue to emerge](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/pazza-idea-tottenham-ecco-perche-ora-dybala-puo-dire-di-si-dopo--27332) over these recent weeks.

### Spurs make Dybala enquiry

Providing the latest, Corriere dello Sport (via[Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/tottenham-enquired-club-star-need-swap-deal-potential-important-player-sacrifice/)) claim Spurs have made an enquiry for the [£225,000-per-week](https://sillyseason.com/money/salary/juventus-players-salaries-69069/) Argentine but any proposed agreement would have to come in the form of a swap.

Indeed, the Old Lady are allegedly fully aware that they will not be receiving ‘cash only’ offers amid the financial uncertainty caused by coronavirus – with this report touting a possible swap deal as a solution.

Corriere don’t state who could make way from Spurs to bring Dybala to north London, but a swap ‘could arrange the situations both in the bank accounts and on the pitch’.

### Transfer Tavern take

While Spurs [very publicly tried to sign Dybala](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/tottenham-transfer-news-paulo-dybala-image-rights-paris-saint-germain-deadline-day-a9047451.html) in 2019, with the transfer falling through due to a complicated image rights issue, we believe that a move for him now could be illogical from a financial perspective.

Even if a swap could be arranged, the 27-year-old’s sky high reported wages could turn chairman Daniel Levy off.

There is still no doubting his ability despite the[absences over 2020/2021](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/paulo-dybala/verletzungen/spieler/206050) , with the forward still averaging an impressive 2.5 shots and 1.6 key passes per 90 over eight Serie A starts this season ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/114863/Show/Paulo-Dybala)).

Italian footballing icon Alessandro Del Piero has lauded him as ‘extraordinary’ ([talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/745635/paulo-dybala-manchester-united-transfer-tottenham-target-maradona-platini/)), meanwhile fellow former international Daniele Adani very recently claimed Dybala is still Juve’s ‘most important player’ ([Sky Sports via TuttoJuve](https://www.tuttojuve.com/altre-notizie/adani-dybala-e-il-giocatore-piu-importante-della-rosa-della-juve-551753)).

However, amid these circumstances and with the need to invest wisely more paramount than ever, Tottenham signing a [much needed leader](https://twitter.com/alasdairgold/status/1377240096039084032?lang=en) at the back arguably takes precedent.
