The Old Lady have seen the Argentinian emerge as a superstar, but rumours in the Spanish media suggested that a €120 million buyout clause existed solely for Barcelona, should they bid. But speaking to Premium Sport on Wednesday night, Marotta dismissed speculation and insisted that as long as Dybala wants to be in Turin, he will not be sold.

"Release clause in Dybala's contract? Release clauses are more popular in Spain than in Italy," Marotta reportedly remarked. "We acquired [Gonzalo] Higuain and [Miralem] Pjanic last season because of this.

"I am against this, and no one at Juve have any clauses. If a player wants to leave, then we won't keep him. It's that simple."
