Roma striker Dybala: Mourinho loves Argentines

Roma striker Paulo Dybala is delighted to be back with the Argentina squad.

Dybala and Roma teammate Leandro Paredes are both in Lionel Scaloni's squad this week.

The striker said, "I'm happy to be back. I told Leo Paredes, when we got on the plane together, that it's great to come here. I didn't respond to the latest call-ups due to injury, but now I can go back.

"I'm physically well, fortunately I've recovered well."

On Roma coach Jose Mourinho, he also told ESPN: "Mourinho has a lot of support for me and Leo Paredes, because he is our coach. He loves the Argentines very much, with him they have always performed and have given something more to the teams than him."
