Paulo Dybala
Dybala has been compared with fellow Argentine Lionel Messi for the past few years and it seems that he has managed to come out of the latter’s shadow now. Dybala has been in red-hot form for Juventus in the ongoing season and notched up 6 goals in 12 matches for them.

His exceptional strikes against Manchester United and Cagliari prove his undeniable talent and it is time for him to venture forward further as a player. He already has 74 goals in 152 matches for Juve.
Dybala is a forward who regularly drops down to the midfield and switches to the wing. Therefore, it is very difficult to mark him. Also, he has very good ball skills and a fine shot on him. Therefore, he is a constant menace to the opposition defence and always likely to score goals.
However, he has not yet replicated his club form for his national team. As Argentina move into a rebuilding phase with the imminent departures of the likes of Gonzalo Higuain and Sergio Aguero, Dybala needs to come to the fore and deliver for his national team as well. He has earned 16 caps for Argentina but not been able to score any goal yet. Still, one can hope that this record would definitely improve in the coming years.
