Dybala is needed by the Old Lady to keep up the Scudetto race against Napoli, but his presence for the Turin derby remains uncertain.

According to Tuttosport, the healing process is going well and the player declared he will be available for the game.

The Gazzetta dello Sport, on the other hand, says that his condition is still doubtful and that Coach Max Allegri will be reluctant to risk another injury to the player's calf.

Both publications agree that the call-up with Argentina, which will follow the day after the game against Torino, is a factor. But while Tuttosport claim that Dybala wants to use Sunday's game to regain his form and shine with the Albiceleste, the Gazzetta claims that the international games represent an additional risk which may encourage the 22-year-old not to play just before it.

Dybala's final trials will take place during Saturday's training session, when Allegri will come to a decision as to whether to field him.
