Chelsea and Tottenham target Paulo Dybala is edging closer to a Juventus exit after contract renewal talks reportedly stalled.

The Argentina international enters the final year of his deal in Turin this summer, but he has failed to find an agreement for an extension after an injury-hit season. 

Football Italia reports that the Italian champions are refusing to budge on the contract offer they tabled last summer, worth €10 million per season including performance-related bonuses.  

With the situation at an impasse, it appears ever likelier that the forward will leave at the end of the season, when Juve can cash in and avoid the risk of losing him on a free transfer a year later. 

It has been a season to forget for Juve so far, as Andrea Pirlo’s side were knocked out of the Champions League by Porto at the Last-16 stage and are 10 points behind leaders Inter in their bid to reclaim the Serie A title.
