Dybala has developed into one of Europe's most
complete attacking players since joining the Serie
A champions from Palermo in 2015.
He has 16 goals and eight assists in 36
appearances in all competitions this season to help
sustain Juve's latest treble charge.
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon stated after the win
over Barca that Dybala is already among the five
best players in the world.
"Paulo Dybala has grown dramatically over the last
two years," Buffon told Mediaset Premium.
"When I talk to directors or friends in football, I've
been saying for a while that he is good enough to
be in the top five players in the world and he
wouldn't be out of place in the top three.
"Having said that, he needs to prove it every time
and with regularity, to show he is worthy of our
expectations of him."
Juve confirmed that Palermo will receive €8million
as a performance bonus payment following
Dybala's renewal, with the fee to be paid in four
instalments starting from the 2018-19 season.
