The Argentine player of Juventus, Paulo Dybala, who completed a remarkable performance against Barcelona in the quarterfinals of the Champions League last year with two goals, said that "everyone expects" him to repeat "last year's performance" at Camp Nou, but he pointed out that "it's not easy."
"What I did against Barça last year was unexpected. Now everyone expects me to repeat it, but it's not easy to do," he declared in the press conference prior to the first match of the group stage of the European competition.
In this sense, Dybala considered the match to be very complicated, despite the fact that Barcelona no longer has Brazilian Neymar da Silva on its roster.

"Barça lost a very important player like Neymar, but Barcelona is always Barcelona, because of its history, because of its name," he emphasized.
In his appearance, questions multiplied about his compatriot Lionel Messi and a possible interest from the Catalan club in him during the last transfer window.
About a potential interest from Barcelona, Dybala stressed that "nobody" told him anything and that "the club never approached" him to make him "an offer."
