Why Dybala trolled Guendouzi after Roma 2-0 Lazio
Dybala and Guendouzi clashed during the previous Derby della Capitale, first in 2024 and then in 2025.
Two years ago, Dybala mocked Guendouzi at full-time by showing him his shin pad, which featured a picture of his Argentina side winning the 2022 World Cup Final against Guendouzi’s France.
Guendouzi left Lazio in the 2026 January transfer window, joining Turkish side Fenerbahce.
Dybala’s Roma contract expires this coming June, but according to multiple sources, talks between the two parties havebegun over a new one-year deal.
Roma will end the 2025-26 campaign on Sunday, visiting already-relegated Verona.
