Dybala turns deadly focus to Europe

AFP, TURIN: Juventus's deadliest weapon Paulo Dybala warned "everything is going my way" as the rising Argentine star turns his focus to Wednesday's Champions League clash with Greek champions Olympiakos.

Long hailed as the heir to national teammate Lionel Messi the 23-year-old is the leading striker in domestic league action across Europe bagging ten goals -- including two hat-tricks -- in six Serie A games.

“At the moment everything is going my way, and we're still at the start, I hope to continue like this,” said the player dubbed 'The Jewel' who arrived in Turin from Palermo in 2015.

“I'm in a period of great confidence. I've changed mentally, I want to grow and improve to go as far as possible.”

Against Olympiakos he will look to open his tally in Europe after Juventus fell 3-0 to Messi's Barcelona in their curtain raiser.

His style of play has changed this season with coach Massimiliano Allegri giving the livewire forward freedom to follow his instincts in the number 10 jersey worn by club legends such as Michel Platini, Roberto Baggio and Alessandro Del Piero.

“I like this system at Juve, because the coach gives me room to move,” he said.

Diminutive, dynamic and armed with a deadly left foot, Dybala could be a prototype of a Messi clone.

The similarities between the two Argentines have been noted by Dybala's strike partner Gonzalo Higuain among others.
