The
Real Madrid
last the final details of the transfer of
Luka Jovic
to the Bundesliga, namely the
Eintracht Frankfurt
club which went to El
Santiago Bernabeu
in the summer of 2019 in exchange for
60 million euros
.
As this newspaper has been able to confirm, the talks between the two groups are well advanced.
The Serbian striker has failed to convince
Zinedine Zidane
or the Merengue fan during this year and a half.
He has played
32 games
, eight of them as a starter, and has only scored
two goals
, figures that have gradually distanced him from the current league champion.
At
23 years old
, Madrid does not want to give up on him and both parties have decided that the best option is to return to the team that made him stand out in Europe.
In
Germany
, Jovic became one of the
fashionable strikers
on the old continent.
He scored
36 goals
in 75 games, including a poker game against Dusseldorf, and led Eintrach to the
2019 Europa League semi-finals
, where they lost on penalties to
Chelsea
but of which he was one of the big stars alongside
Joao Felix
.
Only
Alcácer
(18) and
Robert Lewandowski
(22) scored more goals than him (17) in the Bundesliga that year, in which he showed that he could be one of the top scorers in one of the five major leagues in the world.
That is why Madrid opted for him.
"I asked Jovic"
But his jump to Spain was not as easy as the club and footballer thought.
Karim Benzema
was Zidane's logical bet for any eleven, and Jovic did not knock the door down on the occasions he had to do so.
"
I asked Jovic,
" the French coach acknowledged at a press conference, aware of conditions that the Serbian attacker never showed.
Jovic only chained two consecutive games as a starter on two occasions, in the last League against
Betis and Valladolid
, pairing with Benzema and fulfilling in two Madrid triumphs, and in the Spanish
Super Cup
played in January 2020 in Jeddah, where the team Blanco was champion and where Jovic replaced the injured Karim in the eleven.
For the rest, the Serbian has linked
physical problems
with moments in which he has lacked
confidence and daring
, and others in which luck has not been on his side either, such as the positive in Covid-19 after scoring a double with his selection in mid-November.
Since then, between viruses and injuries, he has not stepped on the grass again.
Now he will try to regain confidence and return goals in the Bundesliga, where Madrid already have on loan to
Reinier
(Dortmund) and a championship in which
Carvajal and Achraf
also grew
.
