Paulo Dybala admits he ‘didn’t expect to score so many goals’ for Juventus, but keeps his season target at 15 strikes.

The 22-year-old has been a sensation since his summer arrival from Palermo, scoring 12 goals and creating eight assists so far this season.

Despite his impressive start, the Argentine admitted that his right foot needs improving.

“Did I expect to have scored so many by now? To tell the truth no, I didn’t even think I would play this much either because I knew that coming to a team with so many strong forwards wouldn’t be at all easy,” he said to Corriere dello Sport.

“But I came here with my head down to learn and listen to the advice of my teammates and improve.

“Should I rethink my target of 15 goals? No, I said it before, that always remains the objective. We’re still second in the table, we can’t get big-headed because we haven’t won anything yet.

“The goal against Roma was difficult because I was in a tight position and didn’t have many options. I tried to strike the ball as quickly as possible and lucky I was quicker than the goalkeeper.

“It’s true that Allegri tells me I must improve with my right foot. He always tells me in training, but I always go with my left.

“I do specific work on it: shoot on the volley from a cross. One with the right and one with the left.”
