(ANSA) - Turin, July 14 - New signing Paulo Dybala said Tuesday that he was confident Juventus could go one better next season and win the Champions League.
    "Last year Juventus had an incredible season," the 21-year-old Argentine striker said at his presentation as a player for Juve, who claimed the Serie A-Italian Cup double and were beaten by Barcelona in the Champions league final last term.
    "We can do even better this year, by winning the Champions".
    Dybala, who who scored 13 goals in Serie A for Palermo last season, moved for 32 million euros and is one of a raft of signings the Turin giants have made.
    Indeed, Dybala will have plenty of competition for a starting slot even though Carlos Tevez has left to return to Boca Juniors.
    Spanish forward Alvaro Morata will be difficult to budge after his heroics last season and Juve have also bought Croatia forward Mario Mandzukic from Atletico Madrid and Italy forward Simone Zaza from Sassuolo.
    Dybala said this situation would benefit the club.
    "It helps to keep us on our toes because we're playing in three competitions and there's also the Super Cup in August," he said.
    "There's plenty of desire to do well here and we want to show this on the pitch." Juve have also beefed up the midfield, after Italy playmaker Andrea Pirlo moved to New York City, with the arrival of Germany midfielder Sami Khedira from Real Madrid.
