Frankfurt / Main (dpa) - Striker Luka Jovic sees Eintracht Frankfurt in an even better position when he returns than when he made it to the Europa League semi-finals in 2019. “The team has improved in quality.

I wouldn't highlight anyone.

Overall, everything is on a good level. We are in a position to achieve great things this season, ”said the 23-year-old Serb at an online media panel on Tuesday.

Jovic is on loan from Real Madrid for half a year and has already scored three Bundesliga goals in his first three appearances as a Joker.

He did not set himself a specific number of goals for the second half of the season.

It looks different when the team is successful.

"If we continue to play like this, we have a chance of the Champions League," said Jovic.

From the first three games since his return, the Hessians have scored seven points, most recently there was a 5-1 at Arminia Bielefeld.

Frankfurt is currently in sixth place in the table, the Champions League is only two points away.

The return to Eintracht, after switching to the top Spanish football club in the summer of 2019 for around 60 million euros, happened at Jovic's request.

“I was unlucky in Madrid, including injuries, and things didn't go smoothly privately.

I'm fortunate that I have a great standing here, also with the coach, ”said the striker.

Adi Hütter has been looking after the team since summer 2018.
