Chelsea 'bid £29m for Paulo Dybala'

The agent of Palermo striker Paulo Dybala has claimed that Chelsea have offered £29m to sign his client.

The Argentine has won a number of admirers after scoring 13 league goals for the Rosanero this season.

Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini recently revealed that Juventus had made an offer for the 21-year-old, but now it appears that Chelsea have joined the race for his signature.

"Paris Saint-Germain have already come forward with an offer of about £32.5m and Chelsea had already reached £29m," Gustavo Mascardi told Gazzetta dello Sport.

"We're now at the stage where the price cannot be lower than £36m. Paulo is in no hurry and will take his decision calmly."

Dybala has scored 21 goals in 89 appearances for Palermo.
