Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has claimed that he no longer speaks to Paulo Dybala as the transfer speculation surrounding the forward continues.
Dybala has been repeatedly linked with a move away from the club in recent months, and Manchester United are among the sides rumoured to be preparing a summer bid for the 21-year-old.
Zamparini expects the Argentine to leave the club at the end of this season, but he believes that his representatives will not do what is best for him.
"I knew even before this season that he would be a great player. He is a golden boy," Zamparini told Radio Kiss Kiss.
"The problem is that he is conditioned by people that don't want to do what is right for him. He has changed completely and is surrounded by terrible teachers. I no longer speak with him.
"Now we are in the hands of certain people that profit on players and that only want to make money; people that influence players negatively, that only consider players money-making machines."
Dybala has just over a year remaining on his current deal.
