So, what has been reported about Aston Villa, Chelsea and Paulo Dybala? Let’s take a look.

Well, according to , Aston Villa are interested in signing Paulo Dybala from AS Roma in the January transfer window.
The Italian news outlet has claimed that Villa want to sign Dybala to shoulder the goalscoring burden with Ollie Watkins, noting that the Argentina international can play a creative role as well.

My View: Paulo Dybala would make Aston Villa better
In my opinion, AS Roma forward Paulo Dybala would be a very good signing for Aston Villa in the January transfer window.
Dybala, , is one of the best players in Serie A who was a massive success at Juventus. He also won the 2022 Qatar World Cup with Argentina.
The 30-year-old, who has been linked with Manchester United as well, can play as a striker, with another forward upfront, or as a playmaker.
In Dybala, Villa manager Unai Emery would get a player who has a wealth of experience and would be able to play a variety of roles.
