Dybala’s Move to Boca Juniors
Paulo Dybala, the forward for Italian side Roma, is on the verge of joining Argentine club Boca Juniors. Reports indicate that Dybala has reportedly signed a preliminary agreement with Boca Juniors, allowing him to join the team on a free transfer once his Roma contract expires on July 1.
In the current 2025/26 season, Dybala has appeared in 23 matches across all competitions, scoring 3 goals and providing 4 assists. Following the appointment of Gian Piero Gasperini as Roma’s head coach, Dybala has seen his leading role within the team diminish. Originally from the province of Córdoba, Dybala came through the youth ranks of local club Instituto. He made his professional debut in the 2011/12 season with Italian side Palermo, later moving to Juventus in the summer of 2015.
During his seven-year stint at Juventus, Dybala secured:
- five Serie A titles,
- four Coppa Italia trophies,
- two Supercoppa Italiana victories.
He also reached the 2016/17 UEFA Champions League final with Juventus.
With Roma, Dybala was a runner-up in the 2022/23 Europa League. He made his debut for the Argentina national team in 2015 and celebrated World Cup glory with the squad in 2022.
Boca Juniors’ Current Standing
As for Boca Juniors, the team has played 15 matches in the Argentine Primera División during the 2026 season, amassing 27 points and sitting second in Group A’s standings. Boca Juniors are also competing in the Copa Libertadores, where they have played three group-stage matches, winning two but losing 1-0 to Brazil’s Cruzeiro. Claudio Ubeda serves as Boca Juniors’ head coach.
Dybala’s potential transfer to Boca Juniors could significantly impact both clubs. For the Argentine side, it presents an opportunity to strengthen their roster with an experienced player who has already gained international renown. For Dybala, it offers a chance to return to his home country and re-establish himself as a key figure in a team where he can become one of the leaders. Given his achievements in Europe, his arrival at Boca Juniors is also likely to boost fan and media interest in the club.
As the situation surrounding Dybala's future unfolds, speculation about his potential moves intensifies. Recent reports have also suggested that he might be considering a switch to Milan as his time with Roma draws to a close.
