Liverpool are reportedly ‘in contact’ with Juventus forward Paulo Dybala following a stall in contract negotiations in Italy.
The 28-year-old ace had been expected to sign a new deal to remain in Turin but talks have recently broken down due to a change in offer.
Dybala’s current deal expires at the end of the season and the Reds are believed to be highly attentive to the fast-changing situation.
That’s according to a report from TuttoMercatoWeb, as cited by Tancredi Palmeri on Twitter.

The report claims that the Anfield club are ‘carefully observing’ the 31-cap Argentina star and a ‘proposal that could arrive in the coming weeks’ as Inter Milan watch on with interest.
This season Dybala has scored 11 times and provided four assists in 23 appearances across all competitions.

Valued at £45million and soon to be a free agent (Transfermarkt), signing the Argentine for nothing would be a sensational piece of business.
Already boasting a goal, achievement and trophy-laden career, Dybala would be a readymade option to boost Jurgen Klopp’s attacking ranks.
Predimaitely operating as either a centre-forward or second striker, the man once hailed as the ‘complete player’ by Alessandro Del Piero would be the ideal man to supplement and perhaps replace Roberto Firmino.
Furthermore, saving money on a fee here should keep funds available for elsewhere within the squad.
