However the initial response from Turin is a firm no, according to the Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Juve claim that any offer Barcelona may throw their way for the 23-year-old striker will be rejected.
But the Catalans have been left in shock after Neymar’s record-breaking move to Paris Saint-Germain and they are determined to bring someone in to fill his position in the front line alongside Lionel Messi.
Dybala could be the perfect fit having already been acquainted with Messi as team-mates on the Argentina national team.
A deal involving Gomes move to Turin could work well for Juventus too.
The Portuguese international was a target for Juventus last summer before they lost out to Barcelona.

Dybala has scored 42 goals in 94 appearances for Juventus and has won the league cup and cup double in both of his seasons with the club.
La Gazzetta also report Barcelona have also shown interest in PSG’s Angel Di Maria and Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho.
