Manchester United is currently the best placed to get the loan of Luka Jovic (22 years old), after the English club has advanced considerably throughout this Tuesday in the negotiations with both the player's agent and with Real Madrid. Being the 'Operation Cavani' of greater complexity, at Old Trafford they have his favor that his is the Serbian's favorite option.
One week after the closing of the transfer market in Spain, the situation up front focuses attention on Madrid. He has thrown in the towel with the departure of Mariano, who refuses to leave, but this Tuesday the panorama has begun to clear. As AS has told, Borja Mayoral, after different meetings, the last one today, has communicated that he remains. The one from Parla thus accepts the 'challenge' of Zidane, who asked the club to continue as Benzema's main replacement.
The Italian road, still open
The case of the youth squad, however, has become independent from that of Jovic. However, Madrid maintains its clear preference for the former Eintracht to approve a loan in a team that guarantees the minutes that he will not have at the Bernabéu. Given his youth and what he showed in Germany, he is trusted for the future. Zidane transmitted that idea to him two weeks ago and the sports management explained to him in the past that he would not be forced to this solution, but it would only be yielded if he fully agreed with his destiny.
All this brings Jovic closer to Manchester right now, a possibility that seduces him. But he is not the only one and, in fact, from Italy, where Rome, Inter and Milan want him, they are still candidates. Roma is the one who had come closest to the agreement and has to press so as not to regret that their two Madrid goals, Jovic and Mayoral himself, have escaped. Any of the interested parties will assume the Jovic file, around 8 million euros gross, figure that Madrid will save.
