Is Dybala polish?

Dybala was born in Laguna Larga, Córdoba, Argentina.

However, Dybala has Polish origins as his grandfather, Bolesław Dybała, was from the village of Kraśniów in Poland; but fled from his country of birth to Argentina during World War II.

In fact, Dybala wanted to obtain Polish citizenship through ancestry from his grandfather, but the bureaucracy proved too complex.

Dybala’s family also has partial Italian origins through his maternal great-grandmother, who was from the Province of Naples.
