<\/p>\n

Juventus forward, Paulo Dybala, has broken his silence on failing to leave for the Premier League in the summer.<\/p>\n

The Serie A champions were keen to sell the Argentine, with Manchester United and Tottenham among the interested clubs.<\/p>\n

United seemed close to a swap deal involving Romelu Lukaku at one point, only for wage demands and agents\u2019 fees to become a sticking point.<\/p>\n

Dybala has been reintegrated back into Maurizio Sarri\u2019s squad and has helped Juve to make a strong start to the season.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Tuttosport, Dybala has claimed that he always wanted to stay and fight for his place at Juve, saying: \u201cI have not experienced an easy summer. Obviously hearing your name linked with every team you don\u2019t want to go to is not a nice thing, but this is football.<\/p>\n

\u201cBefore the market started I had already done an interview in which I said I wanted to stay in Turin, then I never spoke again, not even at the Copa America.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s more important to talk on the field, with facts. You never know how the market goes until the last day, but I wanted to stay here, I wanted to continue my career at Juventus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think I can still give so much to this shirt and I\u2019m very happy with what I showed against Inter.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
