There has to be something special about the one who is said to replace Lionel Messi in his national side. Also known as "La Joya" (The Jewel), Paulo Dybala is regarded as the future of Argentine football and considered a long-term replacement for the legendary Lionel Messi.

The 24-year-old was Juventus' star player last season and scored 26 goals in all competitions for the Old Lady. However, the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo this summer took the limelight away from the attacker and his performances were affected by that.

Known for his pace, technique and finishing skills, he joined Juventus from Palermo in 2015. The striker is doing a great job for the La Vecchia Signora (The Old Lady) since then. He scored 53 goals for the club in 106 league games and was a part of the Serie A Team of the Year for the last two seasons.
