THE BIGGER PICTURE
The Serie A side will now have to decided whether or not to accept the €3m offer for Dybala that the Saudi outfit are expected to make, hold out for a larger fee, or demand that the attacker stays put with one year left on his contract.
DID YOU KNOW?
The 30-year-old World Cup winner joined Roma from Juventus in a free transfer in 2022 and has scored 34 goals in just 78 appearances for the capital club. He was dropped to the bench for their first Serie A game of the season - a 0-0 draw against Cagliari - and replaced Nicola Zalewski for the final 20 minutes.

WHAT NEXT FOR DYBALA?
The five-time Serie A winner will hope Roma and Al-Qadsiah can come to an agreement to free him up to make the move to the Middle East. Al-Qadsiah start their Saudi Pro League campaign with a home game against Al-Fateh on Friday, while Roma take on Empoli in Serie A on Sunday.
