PAULO DYBALA today showed off the illustrious No 10 shirt at Juventus – ending any speculation he could be leaving the Old Lady.
But the Argentinian striker has some big shoes to fill.
He will take on the number last worn by Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
NOT PICKED YOUR FANTASY FOOTBALL TEAM YET? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
But perhaps it's the fact that Juve legends Andrea Pirlo, Zinedine Zidane, Alessandro Del Piero and Roberto Baggio also wore 10 that means he has it all to do to live up to expectation.
Dybala was photographed showing off his new shirt around the Juventus Stadium ahead of the new season.
Pogba wore the shirt for 12 impressive months before joining United in a world record £89million deal.
Dybala looked set to inherit the jersey last season, but it remained vacated for a year.
However, it now has a new owner.
The 23-year-old is considered one of the brightest prospects in the game and was a target for United, Chelsea, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Three wearers have claimed the Ballon d’Or — with one winning it three times in a row.
Dybala bagged 19 goals in 48 appearances for Juve last season as they won Serie A for a record-breaking sixth-successive season.
