Tardelli on if Dybala’s move to Inter constitutes betrayal

Marco Tardelli discussed if Paulo Dybala could be considered a traitor if he made the move from Juventus to Inter on a free transfer.

The 28-year-old Argentinian forward’s contract expires with the Bianconeri at the end of this season and his deal will not be renewed, meaning his seven-year association with the Old Lady is drawing to a close.

Many top clubs are keen to pick him up on a free transfer in the summer but one in particular seems close, Inter. Talks between the two will progress after the Coppa Italia final.

Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Tardelli discussed a possible Dybala move to Inter and whether that constitutes betrayal or not.

“There is no betrayal in today’s football, today you go to the teams that offer more money. For an Italian, perhaps the concept of club loyalty can be valid.

“For a foreigner it isn’t, he goes where they offer him the best opportunity or where whoever is in charge sends him. Whether it’s a club, an agent or whoever you want. I hope he signs for the best team for his future.”

The 28-year-old Dybala, who joined Juventus in 2015 from Palermo, became the club’s joint 9th all-time top scorer following his 115th goal in the 2-1 loss to Genoa on Friday, tied with Roberto Baggio.

This season has been a little difficult for the Argentinian, who has scored 10 goals and provided five assists in 27 Serie A appearances.
