Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has revealed that the club are "happy" to open talks with Juventus about selling Paulo Dybala.
The 21-year-old has been linked to Premier League giants Manchester United, while Arsenal are also believed to be monitoring the highly-rated Argentine.
However, Zamparini, who has admitted that he no longer speaks to the player, has revealed that Juventus are in pole position to sign him.
"There has not been any contact with Napoli but it is true that Marotta has been in touch for Juventus," Zamparini told Tuttosport.
"He told me that Juventus will be right there if we decide to sell Dybala. They are very much interested in signing him and are ready to open talks.
"I told him that I would be more than happy to sell Paulo to Juventus if possible. I would actually prefer for him to stay in Italy."
Dybala has scored 11 goals in Serie A so far this season.
