Juventus GM Marotta: Signing Dybala was worth risk

Juventus GM Beppe Marotta admits he took a "risk" signing Paulo Dybala.

The former Palermo striker has emerged among the world's best this season.

“Dybala was a big opportunity, we believed from the start and when competition erupted with Milan and Inter, we had the courage to take a risk by raising our bid.

“We knew that we had a great talent within our grasp and therefore it was worth the risk," the Bianconeri director told Mediaset Premium of their €40m swoop from Palermo.
