According to El Gol Digital, the Serie A club wants to ensure that they can get astronomical figure for the Argentina international should he leave before his deal comes to an end.
The release clause is rumoured to be £202 million (R3.78 billion), and if true, it will topple Neymar's ground-breaking £198 million (R3.71 billion) clause which was activated by Paris Saint-Germain in August.
The 23-year-old signed for the Bianconeri from Palermo for a fee of £23 million (R431 million) in 2015, and has since won back-to-back Serie A titles.
There have been reports suggesting that FC Barcelona will try to sign the Argentine next season, but Juve will be hoping this new release clause will chase them away.
Dybala, who was given the club's iconic No. 10 jersey this season, has insisted he is in the best environment for him.
"I've always just wanted to succeed in everything that I do, and I know that Juventus is the perfect place to be if you're going to win things," Dybala said, as quoted by The Sun.
"I want to make the most of what I am experiencing here.
"People like me a lot here, and I am doing all I can to make them happy."
