Roma seem to be having doubts as to whether they want to extend Paulo Dybala’s deal beyond next year’s expiry.

The capital club are very pleased with how the Argentine became an undisputable leader for the rest of the team.

However, the Giallorossi seem preoccupied with his condition – once again, Dybala got hurt and was out for Roma’s two most crucial games of the season with Bayer Leverkusen and Atalanta.

In a season that saw him in relative good health, Dybala still only featured in 52% of all games Roma have played across all competitions, reports Il Messaggero.

The player and his entourage have yet to meet with the club to discuss their future plans – but the newspaper suggests that talks may prove not as smooth as initially expected.
