Chelsea may be ready to trigger the release clause for Roma forward Paulo Dybala.

The Argentine has been in excellent form with Jose Mourinho's team so far this season.

However, Roma are in financial difficulty and Dybala would earn a higher salary in the Premier League.

Per TuttoMercatoWeb, £10.3 million would be sufficient to secure Dybala's future.

The clause is only active for teams outside of the Italian Serie A, per the deal that Dybala signed.

The forward may be eager to play for his countryman Mauricio Pochettino at Stamford Bridge.
