The release clause for Roma forward Paulo Dybala would be €20 million for Italian clubs and €12 million for clubs outside Serie A, although Roma could prevent the clause from being triggered by increasing the player’s wages.

This according to Gianluca Di Marzio, who detailed on his homepage, the conditions by which the Argentine could potentially be signed from the Giallorossi next summer.

When Dybala joined Roma on a free transfer from Juventus last summer, his contract included a release clause active for this summer.

As Di Marzio explains, the amount needed to trigger the clause would be different for Italian clubs and teams outside of Italy, with the amount set at €20 million and €12 million.

If the clause is to be triggered, however, the Giallorossi would have the option of increasing Dybala’s wages to €6 million net per season from the €3.8 million that he currently earns in order to keep hold of him.

If the capital club were to increase the 29-year-old’s wages in this manner, the release clause would no longer be applicable, whereas if they were to decline to, then he would be free to leave.

Moreover, Di Marzio reports, if Dybala’s release clause were to be triggered, then 80% of the fee would go to Roma, whilst the remaining 20% would go to the player.
