REAL MADRID will go all out to sign Paulo Dybala this summer, according to reports.

The Juventus forward has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid and Barcelona in recent months following his rise through the ranks in Italy.
Juventus are keen to tie him down to a longer deal with his current contract running until 2020.
But with the Italian giants yet to begin talks over extending his stay, Real and Barcelona are keen to take advantage of his situation.

Reports suggest Dybala already has a verbal agreement in place with Real chief Florentino Perez to move to the Bernabeu in the summer.
And Spanish publication Diario Gol claim Perez is working round the clock to ensure the 23-year-old moves to the Spanish capital and not Barcelona.
But it seems Dybala already favours a move to Real over their rivals with the report suggesting he doesn’t want to link up with Lionel Messi and Neymar.

It is understood he feels he would not shine in his own right with the duo already the star names at the club.
But Dybala’s signature won’t come cheap with the report claiming Juve will only consider offers of at least £100m.
In order to lower the fee though, Perez is thought to be willing to offer any one of Isco, Alvaro Morata or Mateo Kovacic to Juve to tempt them into doing business.
