Boca await Dybala’s signing as he undergoes surgery: recovery time | OneFootball

La Joya underwent an arthroscopy due to his knee problems and will be in recovery for about 45 days. The Xeneize wants to have him by June.

A few days after becoming a father to Gia with Oriana Sabatini, Paulo Dybala is going through a difficult football moment due to a knee injury. This Friday, Italian media reported that the Roma midfielder will undergo surgery, and his recovery time is uncertain.

According to Sky Sports, La Joya, who hopes to be part of the Argentine National Team in the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, has been dealing with issues in his left knee, and pain that he experienced during Thursday's training led the doctors to decide that he undergo an arthroscopy.

The procedure, which was performed on Friday morning, was “exploratory to better understand Dybala's knee” to then “evaluate the next phase, and only then can the recovery time be determined.” Since January, he has already missed six matches due to this issue: Panathinaikos, Udinese, Cagliari, Napoli, Cremonese, and Juventus. Now, he is not expected to play until early May.

Boca awaits Dybala in June

While his current situation in Europe calms down, Boca's option appears strong on the horizon. Despite the discomfort in his knee, the Xeneize is determined to pursue Paulo Dybala. After not leaving at the beginning of 2026, it is now reported in Italy that formal contacts between the parties are being maintained, and the possibility is beginning to take shape. The conversations are progressing well, although the Loba also does not want to part with him and intends to initiate talks to extend his contract, although it would include a significant salary reduction.
