Juventus: Gonzalo Higuain wants Paulo Dybala to play closer to him
The two strikers made no passes between each other in yesterday’s clash and during a post match interview the former Napoli striker asked his compatriot to play closer to him.
The fact that Dybala and Higuain did not make any pass between each other does not mean that the former Palermo ace is not willing to connect with other teammates as he completed 34 passes with Brazilian right-back Dani Alves yesterday night.
Dybala is actually playing closer to the former Barcelona fullback than to his strike partner. Dybala made 34 passes to Dani Alves yesterday night, receiving 20 from the Brazilian, but if the Argentine star wants to have more impact in Juventus’ final third, he has to follow Higuain’s advice and play closer to him.
