The name of Paulo Dybala is once again taking center stage in the international transfer market. The 31-year-old Argentine forward, currently at Roma, is reportedly on Flamengo's radar, according to Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur on his X account. Although the interest has not yet been confirmed by the Brazilian club or the player's camp, the possibility has sparked excitement at the prospect of seeing La Joya return to South American soccer.
According to the report, the Mengão is planning to offer Dybala a two-year contract, with an option for an additional year, should his departure from Italy materialize. Meanwhile, Italian media claim that Roma is seeking to renew his contract until 2029 to prevent his departure and shield him from the interest of clubs in South America and the Middle East.

The Cordoban striker is under contract with the capital club until June 2026, with a release clause of about 12 million euros. That amount, which is relatively accessible by European standards, makes Dybala a tempting prospect for the continent's most powerful teams, including Flamengo, which has already demonstrated its ambition in the market with high-profile signings in recent years.
Meanwhile, in Argentina his name has also been mentioned at Boca, a club that Dybala himself has cited as a possible future destination. His friend and former Roma teammate, Leandro Paredes, acknowledged that he is trying to convince him to wear the Xeneize jersey. In a recent interview, the forward admitted that he "would love to play in Argentine soccer" and that "it's on his mind", although he made it clear that for now he is "happy at Roma".

Some months ago, there was also an approach from Gremio de Porto Alegre. The club from Rio Grande do Sul received the proposal along with other high-profile players, but the Argentine's salary was the main obstacle: he earns around 6.8 million Brazilian reais per month at Roma (more than 1.2 million euros), an amount considered completely out of reach for the Brazilian team.
The scenario of a return to the continent seems more feasible than at other stages of his career. With more than a decade in Europe and a consolidated career, Dybala could consider a change of direction if a solid and attractive sporting project emerges. Flamengo, due to its economic structure and continental ambition, and Boca, due to its history and personal connection, stand out as the main candidates to try to lure him.
For now, there are no formal negotiations or official statements, but the possibility is on the table. If any negotiation were to progress, it would be one of the most impactful moves of the upcoming transfer window. Meanwhile, Paulo Dybala's future is beginning to be written between Roma and the lingering dream of returning home.
