Juventus Unveil New Dybala Shirt Number
Paulo Dybala will follow in the footsteps of Sivori, Platini, Roberto Baggio, Del Piero & Carlos Tevez as Juventus yesterday announced that the Argentinean will receive Juventus' number 10 shirt. The move signals the club's interest to build their team around the Argentine. The 23-year-old has been linked with Barcelona following Neymar's exit.
Paulo Dybala Becomes Juventus New No. 10
Paulo Dybala will switch from the No. 21, worn by the likes of Zinedine Zidane and Andrea Pirlo, to No. 10. The number has been vacant since Paul Pogba departed for Manchester United last summer.
Grazie mille @delpieroale. È un onore portare la tua maglia. La sfida di punizione tra 10 sarà ancora più bella 😜 https://t.co/i50qjdSt0Z

Interestingly, Paulo Dybala is not the only famous player who switched shirt numbers as Luka Modric swapped his number 19 for the number 10.
