The Argentine forward has reached an agreement with Saudi Pro League club Al Qadsiah, and negotiations are currently underway to finalize the transfer fee.
Canovi told TMW Radio: "I had no doubts that Dybala would accept the offer, there was a desire on both sides to interrupt this relationship. The Roma fans would have deserved to see the Argentine with (Matias) Soulé.
"We're talking about a man who leaves for money, but at Juve there have been some technical choices, it's just a vulgar affair of money, he should have the courage to tell the truth.
"For me it was Dybala who asked (coach Daniele) De Rossi not to play. You've made a life choice, so go in front of your fans who have always supported you and find the courage to tell it like it is."
