Juventus adamant on no Olympics for Dybala

Juventus general director Giuseppe Marotta has insisted the Serie A champions will not allow Paulo Dybala to represent Argentina at the Olympics this summer.

Argentina coach Gerardo Martino included the 22-year-old in his 35-man preliminary squad for the Olympics in Rio this summer, after leaving him out of the Copa America side. 

However, Juventus don't look as if they are going to budge on their decision to stop the player from travelling to Brazil.

"He has been included in Argentina's provisional squad for the Olympics," Marotta told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"But the Fifa regulations allow us to prevent him from actually going.

"We have the desire to keep him here because the Olympics coincide with the new season."

The youngster has established himself as a key player for the Serie A champions, and finished the 2015-16 season as their top scorer with 23 goals in 46 appearances in all competitions.
