The coach of the Fiorentina team, Vincenzo Italiano, spoke about the Serbian national team player who arrived in Florence from the royal club, Luka Jovic in question.
The Serbian national team player, after brilliant games for Eintracht Frankfurt, in the 2018/19 season. received an invitation, which he did not refuse, to play for Real Madrid. However, he did not play football at the Santiago Bernabeu and for years he has been struggling to find even a fraction of the form he had that year in Frankfurt.
For Real Madrid, Jovic made 36 appearances in as many as three seasons, most of them coming from the bench, and scored only 3 goals. His contract with the royal club expired at the end of the previous season and he, as a free agent, decided to join Fiorentina, managed by Vincenzo Italiano.
“Luka showed us that he has something that every cold-blooded striker should have. He is only 25 years old, he is young, temperamental, he still needs to develop mentally because there is a lot of room for improvement. He would have to regain his will, which is certainly not easy considering that in the last 2.3 years has not played football nearly as much as he should have,’ said the Italian and continued:
“He started well with us, he is slowly returning to his smile, which every player should have, and which Luka lost over time. He certainly lacks a goal, because when you are a striker and you haven’t scored for a long time, you lose a lot of self-confidence. I have no doubt that it will happen soon, and then it’s up to us to get the most out of it. Jovic’s potential is huge and he is certainly one of the best reinforcements for our club,’ concluded Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Italiano.
Luka Jovic scored a goal in the first round against Cremonese, but in the meantime there was a conflict with the Italian when he refused to enter the game at the very end of the match against Verona.
