He told Al Arabi Al Jadeed: "He was an icon of Roma as a player and now he is fully committed to his new role. He is transmitting his ideas and it is really inspiring to work with him. I want to give my all for this team and for the fans who welcomed me in an incredible way.
"I would like to get a positive result and reach the Champions League this year."
On the future, La Joya was coy: "At the moment, my future is the next match and then we'll see what happens. But I play for Roma and I see myself with Roma."
Dybala also commented on Jos Mourinho: "Working with Mourinho was stimulating and represented significant growth for me. We are talking about a coach who has done a lot in his career, without a doubt he uses his experience and he helped me grow as a footballer. Honestly, I don't know what the future holds for him, but I'm sure he will continue at a top club."
