Paulo Dybala, sidelined by injury, hopes to return to the forefront and help the team in the final matches of the season.
The Argentine star could return to Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad ahead of the match against Bologna, scheduled for Saturday, April 25th at 6:00 PM.
La Joya is having a difficult year, and the numbers confirm it: 22 appearances, 3 goals, and 4 assists.
This is a meager tally for a player of his quality, constantly hampered by physical problems.
Dybala hasn’t played a league match since January 25, 2026: Roma-Milan 1-1, a match in which he injured his meniscus.
Dybala doesn’t seem inclined to heed the siren calls from abroad. The Argentine has made up his mind: Roma is home, the project is intriguing, and the desire for redemption after a difficult season is high.
AsCorriere dello Sport reports, “La Joya” is ready to discuss his contract, which expires on June 30th. The 1993-born player, who turns 33 next November, has opened up to a potential pay cut with performance-related bonuses: a new pact to rebuild together.
Gasperini is watching the situation with interest because his attacking style always requires an additional striker who can add technique, quality, and goals to his team. In short, strong players are always needed, and having as many of them as possible can help.
Roma finds itself caught between an unfinished revolution and a team ready to change pace.
