Juventus 'considering Philippe Coutinho, Paulo Dybala swap'

Juve 'considering Coutinho, Dybala swap'

Juventus have reportedly entered the race to sign Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona this summer.

Coutinho's underwhelming form since his big-money move to Camp Nou last January has led to speculation that Barca could look to cash in on the 26-year-old when the transfer window reopens.

The likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester United are all thought to have been in contact with Coutinho's representatives already to discuss a possible switch.

However, Tuttosport reports that Juventus are also now considering a bid for the Brazilian and could include Paulo Dybala as a makeweight in any deal.

Dybala has been linked with a number of Europe's top clubs in recent transfer windows, and Juventus are considering letting him leave this summer having seen him score just four Serie A goals all season.

Barcelona could be open to a swap deal for the Argentine, although they are likely to want a player-plus-cash arrangement as they look to recoup as much of the money they spent on Coutinho as possible.
