Journalist backs up reports that Elliott Management contacted Dybala’s entourage

Further confirmations have arrived regarding a phone call that took place between executives from Elliott Management and Paulo Dybala.

Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) reported a couple of days ago that there were telephone contacts between some directors of the Elliott Management fund who are located in London with Dybala’s entourage.

The reason for the call was not so much to try to start a concrete negotiation but more to ask for information on the progress of the discussions between the playmaker and Inter, given there are rumours that they have come to a standstill, but his salary demands were enquired about.

Monica Colombo from the newspaper tweeted to say that she knows ‘with certainty’ that a phone call from a manager at Elliott was made to the entourage of Dybala.

Now, journalist Fabiana della Vale – who covers Juventus – has responded to Colombo’s tweet with the following: “Here female solidarity has nothing to do with it. [News about] The phone call also came to me.”
