Remember when Paolo Dybala nearly signed for Tottenham

In 2019, Tottenham reached a full agreement with Juventus to sign Paolo Dybala
0:13
Pochettino was desperate for it and the player wanted the move. It was all cut out to be the next big Premier League transfer
0:19
But then chaos. Dybala's image rights were a big problem for the move

They were owned by a third party, so not Juventus and not even Dybala himself

and Spurs would have had to pay extra to get it finished and obviously in prime Spursy fashion they didn't want to do that

The negotiations broke down on deadline day. Spurs backed out and Juventus just didn't want any of the legal drama

and of course Dybala stayed put at Juve. He could have linked up with Kane and Son
0:44
and could have been one of the most influential players in the Tottenham side that was in the Champions League at the time

Did Tottenham fumble the deal or did Dybala dodge a bullet from being the next big Premier League flop
