Luka Jovic Determined To Turn Around Real Madrid Struggles
Luka Jovic is determined to turn around his ongoing struggles at Real Madrid after a difficult start to the season.
The 22-year-old Serbian striker has failed to deliver the goals Real Madrid paid €60m for last summer with just one goal recorded in his 21 appearances for Los Blancos so far this season.
Jovic arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu to much fanfare after finding the back of the net 29 times in all competitions for German Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt last season.
He has been unable to dislodge Karim Benzema as Real Madrid’s first choice striker with the Frenchman in imperial form this season.
Jovic is however convinced he will be a success at the 13-time European champions despite being linked with a departure in the January transfer window.
“I’m not happy with the season I’m having, at least up to this point. Mainly because I can be much better,” Jovic told Serbian channel, Sports Afternoons with Kristina.
“Sometimes on YouTube I see videos of me from last year and I ask myself ‘what happened?’”
“But we all know the pressure at Real Madrid is huge, even more so if you’re only 21 and they payed €60M for you. I have fought until now without success. But hope the situation changes.”
“In Serbia, I still feel that there is a lot of negativity when talking about my game at Real Madrid,” he added.
“But I am convinced that I will do well and that I will show that I am a Real Madrid player because I have the quality and talent to be here”.
