Jovic is worth half of what Real Madrid paid, a year later

Luka Jovic signed for Real Madrid on June 4, 2019, just one year ago this Thursday. And in just twelve months, its value has been devalued by almost half. Of the 60 million euros Madrid paid for it (plus five in variables) to the 32 in which it is now priced by Transfermarkt (today's date). The curious thing is that the Serbian center forward (22 years old) arrived at the Bernabéu with high expectations for the good performance he offered in the Bundesliga, a very demanding championship, and for its great Europa League, in which it was Pichichi. At the Eintracht in Frankfurt last year he registered 27 goals and seven assists, getting almost all the greats of Europe to ask about their situation. The most benefited was Benfica, which took 30% of the transfer having given it to the Germans for only seven million euros.

Jovic initially won over to the Madrid fans when they asked him what his number would be as he could not wear the 9 Benzema: “The number of the shirt does not score goals”. Shocking. His serious gesture, steel chin and tough guy profile made him the start of that killer in the area that Real Madrid dreams of since the departure of Christian. But Jovic has barely had the confidence of Zidane (Benzema has started in 93% of the matches) and in the few moments he has enjoyed he has left no trace of the scoring stamp exhibited in Frankfurt. Just two goals (the prettiest the one that got Osasuna) and a spectacular start in Arabia in the Super Cup final against Atleti. Poor baggage for a player who, let's not forget, signed for six years and therefore has a contract with Madrid until 2025.

The club has moved to Haaland in view of the sporting age of Benzema he is taking wrinkles (he will be 33 in December) and for the doubts that Jovic leaves. But in the club they insist in turn that the first year is always adaptive and it will be from next season when we see its best version. In any case, his off-field problems haven't helped him either. His getaway to Belgrade when the state of alarm jumped to be there with his girlfriend (he also took the opportunity to see his young son, who lives there with his mother, ex-Jovic). And in the last days of confinement, the calcaneus of the foot was broken, an injury that according to Serbian media could have occurred when jumping from a wall in his home. Belgrade. You will not be able to assist the team in the fight for The league and the sure thing is that a year after his arrival, Jovic is worth half …
