Rumoured Chelsea target Paulo Dybala has called an end to speculation over his future by signing a new contract at Juventus.

What's the latest?

The Serie A giants confirmed on their official Twitter page that the 23-year-old Argentine has penned fresh terms in Turin.

Dybala has committed the next five years of his career to the Italian outfit, meaning that plenty of big clubs have missed out.

Earlier this week, The Express claimed that Chelsea, Real Madrid and Barcelona were among those interested in the forward.

However, it seems as though the lure of the Premier League or La Liga was not enough for Dybala to entertain a transfer.

The important thing for Juve is that he has put rumours of his future to bed before the summer transfer window opens.

Is this really a blow for Chelsea?

In short, yes. But not just for Chelsea. Any club that were keen on adding Dybala to their team have missed out because he is a great young talent.

Some may argue that Serie A is not as competitive as some other divisions in Europe, but he has scored eight goals and registered six assists in 24 appearances in the league.

In all competitions he has found the back of the net 14 times, and most notably is the fact that he has netted four of those goals on the elite stage in the Champions League.

Two of them were scored against Barcelona in Tuesday night's 3-0 victory in the first leg of their quarter-final tie in Turin.

Dybala would have no doubt strengthened Chelsea's attacking department had he arrived at Stamford Bridge in the summer, but now they will have to go back to the drawing board.
