Massimiliano Allegri believes Paulo Dybala lost his way at Juventus after trying to emulate his compatriot, Lionel Messi.
Dybala, 28, said a tearful goodbye to Juventus earlier this month after seven years in Turin. He was viewed as one of Europe's finest players after a stellar 2017-18 campaign - scoring 26 goals - but managed just 20 during his last two years at the club combined.
The Argentine has picked up just three senior caps for his country during the last two-and-a-half years as a result of his form - missing their Copa America victory last summer - and is now without a club after failing to agree to new terms with the Old Lady, with whom he won five Serie A titles.
