Man City should consider £81.6m-rated 5ft 8in man to replace Sergio Aguero – opinion

|

Sergio Aguero could leave Manchester City when his contract expires next summer, forcing Pep Guardiola to scour the transfer market for a replacement.

We’ve been linked with Darwin Nunez, Raul Jimenez, Timo Werner, Arkadiusz Milik, Patson Daka, Luis Suarez, Lautaro Martinez and Erlin Haaland, but Paulo Dybala is the latest name to pop up on our radar.

90min say we’re interested in the 27-year-old and may have to battle Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain for his signature.

Dybala has made 238 appearances in all competitions since joining the Old Lady from US Palermo in 2015, scoring 96 goals with 38 assists. Last season, the 5ft 8in Argentine international scored 11 goals and made 11 assists in 33 Serie A games, but his form has spiralled this campaign.

Dybala has made 10 appearances in all competitions, scoring one goal. He’s fired blanks in six Serie A outings and has been criticised by Andrea Pirlo for his poor start to the season. Although contract talks were cited in October, the 27-year-old has 18 months remaining on his deal so his future may be up in the air. If City want to make a move, they may have to pay €90m (£81.6m).
