Juventus striker Paulo Dybala has revealed Juventus turned down a massive €90m bid for him from Spanish giants Barcelona over the summer.
The Catalan club made an audacious attempt to lure the Argentinean starlet to the Camp Nou but Dybala said that he was grateful to Juve for turning the bid down - giving him the opportunity to continue to play with some world-class players.
According to Calcio Mercato Dybala said: "The secret for our successes is having experienced players like Buffon, Chiellini and Bonucci and other world-class players. There are stunning players in every position of the pitch.
"When I arrived at Juventus, Pirlo was leaving and I decided to take "?his' number 21. I'd always had the number 9 but that belonged to Morata last season. The 21 bring good luck last season, so I've decided to keep it. I am honoured to play close to Gonzalo Higuaín.
"Juventus rejected an offer for me and I have to thank Juventus because that mean they believe in me. It is difficult to reject these kinds of offers. I am happy to stay, I am playing in one of the best clubs in the world and if I'd ever decide to leave, it'd be for the club's good.
"We want to win the Champions League, why shouldn't we? Winning the world cup with Argentina, however, would be even better, I'd go out of my mind if that even happens."?
Dybala scored 23 goals during his first season in Turin and has notched four goals in all competitions this term.
Juventus are attempting to win Serie A for a sixth consecutive time.
