Paulo Dybala scores for Palermo GETTY

Paulo Dybala has scored 12 goals for Palermo this season

Manchester United, Arsenal and Juventus are all known suitors of the 21-year-old front man, who has scored 12 goals in 25 appearances this season.

“Has Dybala already been picked up by Juve? Absolutely not,” Zamparini told Radio Due.

“I already have a €40m offer in my hand, but if someone else gets into the race then we’ll see what happens.

“Were Manchester United behind this offer? I won’t tell you the name of the club, not even if you torture me!”

Argentine Dybala has been compared to Manchester City striker and compatriot Sergio Aguero and is expected to leave the Sicilian club this summer.

Only yesterday did Palermo coach Beppe Iachini admitted he may not be able to keep hold of his ace forward, as well as Juventus target Franco Vazquez.

“For now they’re at Palermo, and they’ve improved significantly this season," Iachini had said.

“If they move to a big team, they’ll have an effect.

"We’re not worrying about losing them, we have to finish the season in the best possible way.

“We won’t make the mistake of putting the cart before the horse, and we’ll just think about the moment.”
