Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta has claimed the club’s intention to sign Juventus star Paulo Dybala.

According to La Gazzetta delo Sport, however, Dybala has chosen Inter as his next destination.
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace want to secure the permanent signing of Chelsea loan star Conor Gallagher in the summer.
Gallagher was recognised as Palace’s 2021/2022 player of the season on Tuesday.
According to talkSPORT, the Eagles want to have the midfielder at Selhurst Park for the long-term.
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland’s £51million switch to Manchester City is eclipsed by incredible agents’ fees of £42m and his £34m annual wages.
The Borussia Dortmund striker’s dad Alf-Inge-Haaland could pick up around £25m as he has helped represent his son.
Some figures are unclear, such as if they are before or after taxes, but they are still a staggering example of how negotiations can work.
