Paulo Dybala’s shocking turnaround caught the entire Italian capital by surprise, with fans celebrating the Argentine’s decision to stay.
In a crazy turn of events, Paulo Dybala has decided to stay at Roma, rejecting a very rich offer from Al-Qadsiah.
The Argentine, who will in the capital for the third consecutive year, has chosen to continue his adventure with the Giallorossi, a decision that made the fans happy, but which was not taken alone.
Although the final choice was Dybala’s, his decision was strongly influenced by his family, writes Corriere dello Sport, in particular his wife, Oriana Sabatini, and his mother, Alicia.
Oriana, a successful singer and actress, was not thrilled about the idea of moving to Saudi Arabia, a country that could limit her professional and personal opportunities.
Although she did not directly interfere in her husband’s decisions, she has clearly expressed her disappointment at the idea of leaving Europe, where she has built a solid career and a large fan base, especially through her podcasts and artistic projects in Argentina.
Alicia, Paulo’s mother, also played a crucial role in this decision.
Alicia raised Dybala alone and has always had a significant influence on his life.
Although she rarely speaks in public, Alicia is very attentive to her son’s choices, particularly when they concern his career and personal well-being.
The thought of seeing her son move away from European football, especially after the disappointment of not being called up to the Copa America, would have caused her even greater disappointment.
