Good afternoon everyone! Today I come to bring you a striking observation about the case of a player who at one time was considered TOP at European level, the Serbian Luka Jovic, who wherever he arrives is a great player, or at least in almost all the teams where he has been, and that almost has an emptiness that represents the Real Madrid. In this post below, we will review the career of the Balkan 9, his numbers in the teams in which he played, and the reasons why his time in the white house was not fruitful. Join me!

Una Europa League para recordar - A Europa League to remember
Luka Jovic aparecio en el radar de grandes clubes europeos al culminar una magnifica actuacion en la Competicion Europea de la Uefa Europa League, en la temporada 2018-2019. El prime de un delantero centro serbio hacia que clubes TOP como el Real Madrid decidiesen apostar por el. 60 Millones de euros bastaron para convencer al club portador de su ficha, el Eintracht Frankfurt.

¿Cuales fueron los numeros del serbio durante esa temporada para que el rey de europa se fijase en el?

• 14 partidos en Europa League, 10 goles realizados.
• 32 partidos en Liga local, 17 goles realizados.

Una media bastante alta que precisa un delantero de clase. Numeros que a cualquier club tentaria de ofertar por quien sea ese goleador. Pero no solo eran los goles, no solo eran numeros. Era la forma, durante esa Europa League, el Frankfurt se cargo a rivales de peso en el camimno (Benfica, Inter) siempre de la mano de Jovic liderando el ataque.

En semis, el Chelsea, que al final terminaria siendo el campeon, sufriria en casa para derrotar a los alemanes, durante esa serie, Jovic fue el encargado de anotar 2 goles, 1 por partido. Ahi se consumo que lo del delantero no era una pizca de suerte, para quien a esa altura de lo visto dudase de el, ahi ya era evidente que Jovic estaba en un momento dulce. Y el Real Madrid entro en escena, no necesito de largas conversaciones y negociaciones para cerrar el trato. Jovic estaba convencido de dar el salto que era necesario para consumarse como uno de los mejores delanteros del mundo. Pero eso no pudo suceder...

Luka Jovic appeared on the radar of big European clubs after a magnificent performance in the European Competition of the Uefa Europa League, in the 2018-2019 season. The prime of a Serbian center forward made TOP clubs like Real Madrid decide to bet on him. 60 million euros were enough to convince the club that had his contract, Eintracht Frankfurt.

What were the Serbian's numbers during that season to make the king of Europe take notice of him?

• 14 games in the Europa League, 10 goals scored.
• 32 matches in the local league, 17 goals scored.

A fairly high average that requires a classy striker. Numbers that any club would be tempted to bid for this striker. But it wasn't just the goals, it wasn't just the numbers. It was the form, during that Europa League, Frankfurt took down heavy opponents in the field (Benfica, Inter) always with Jovic leading the attack.

In the semis, Chelsea, who in the end would end up being the champion, would suffer at home to defeat the Germans, during that series, Jovic was in charge of scoring 2 goals, 1 per game. That's when it became clear that the striker was not a bit of luck, for those who doubted him at that point, it was already evident that Jovic was in a sweet moment. And Real Madrid came into the picture, no need for long talks and negotiations to close the deal. Jovic was convinced of making the leap that was necessary to become one of the best strikers in the world. But that couldn't happen...

¿Peso de la camiseta, confianza del entrenador, confianza en si mismo, que influyo? - Weight of the jersey, coach's confidence, self-confidence, what influenced?
El 11 de Junio de 2019 Jovic era presentado en el Santiago Bernabeu como flamante refuerzo del Real Madrid, en prinicipio, Benzema tendria que ponerse las pilas pues ya habia llegado una competencia a la altura de su nivel... Y vaya que se puso las pilas pues en esa temporada llego la explosion de Karim y empezo a edificarse el primer que vemos hoy en dia, pero bueno, eso es otro tema, aqui el tema es Jovic, y el serbio genero mucha ilusion, justificada por la gran temporada previa que habia realizado, claramente.

Comenzaba la temporada blanca y Jovic pocos minutos veia, a pesar de haber una lesion en el camino, no habian respuestas del porque el serbio no jugaba demasiado. En algun momento se llego a creer que no era un profesional a la altura, pero esas hipotesis estuvieron (o al menos hasta el momento) poco sustentadas con pruebas reales. La confianza del serbio disminuyo a tal punto de declarar que se sentia falto de confianza. Minutos disputaba, pero pocos, escazos a decir verdad, sin embargo en un juego contra Osasuna logro marcar un gol y en ese momento se creyo que habia una luz al final del tunel para el, pero solo fue un espejismo.

Zidane en ruedas de prensa era cuestionado constantemente por dos jugadores de su plantilla en ese momento: James Rodriguez y Luka Jovic. Zizou respondia lo mismo siempre, contaba con ellos y no habia nada de malo con ellos. Aunque la sensacion de afuera parecia que si. La temporada culminaba e iniciaba la siguiente y en ella Luka tendria menos oportunidades y le toco volver a donde todo inicio, en invierno de 2021, Frankfurt toco las puertas de valdebebas y pregunto por el estatus del serbio para una cesion, el Madrid se comporto dispuesto a cederlo. Y tras llegar a un acuerdo Jovic volvia a Alemania al menos durante 6 meses.

En su debut, marco dos goles para el Eintracht, dando a entender que calidad tenia, lo que faltaba era confianza, y a la siguiente fecha, volvia a anotar, todo parecia en orden. Los 6 meses que ahi estuvo, se le vio feliz, anotaba, y disfrutaba. El brillo en los ojos los tenemos todos y eso no se puede ocultar, el serbio estaba falto de confianza.

Le toco volver a Madrid, para la temporada que culmino hace unos meses. Con Ancelotti ahora al mando, se pensaba que, si el problema era Zidane, por lo menos ahora tendria una nueva oportundiad para demostrar su valia. Y empezo bien, anoto 1 gol al comienzo de temporada, gol de victoria, gol importante, pero se fue diluyendo a lo largo de los meses, y aqui la razon no era otra mas que Karim Benzema estaba a punto de volar. El prime del Frances se consumo a tal punto de que todos sientan y perciban (me incluyo) que es el ganador del Balon de Oro proximo a entregarse.

Al ver que era imposible tener minutos en la casa blanca, decidio poner fin a esa etapa, la Fiorentina de Italia entro en conversaciones con el sequito del Serbio, y con el Madrid sucedio algo que poco impacto genero, pero para mi no debio pasar desapercibido. El coste total del traspaso de Jovic se efectuo en... 0 millones de euros. 0 euros. Nada. Como si fuese un agente libre.

On June 11, 2019 Jovic was presented at the Santiago Bernabeu as a brand new reinforcement of Real Madrid, in principle, Benzema would have to get his act together because a competition at the height of his level had arrived... And he did get his act together, because in that season came the explosion of Karim and began to build the first that we see today, but well, that's another topic, here the topic is Jovic, and the Serbian generated a lot of illusion, justified by the great previous season that he had done, clearly.

The white season began and Jovic saw few minutes, despite an injury on the way, there were no answers as to why the Serbian did not play much. At some point it was believed that he was not a professional at the height, but these hypotheses were (or at least so far) little supported by real evidence. The Serb's confidence diminished to the point of declaring that he felt lacking in confidence. He played minutes, but few, scarce to tell the truth, however in a game against Osasuna he managed to score a goal and at that moment it was believed that there was a light at the end of the tunnel for him, but it was only a mirage.

Zidane in press conferences was constantly questioned by two players of his squad at that time: James Rodriguez and Luka Jovic. Zizou replied the same as always, he counted on them and there was nothing wrong with them. Although the feeling from the outside seemed to be that there was. The season ended and the next one began and Luka would have fewer opportunities and he had to return to where it all began, in the winter of 2021, Frankfurt knocked on the doors of Valdebebas and asked about the status of the Serbian for a loan, Madrid was willing to loan him. And after an agreement was reached, Jovic returned to Germany for at least 6 months.

On his debut, he scored two goals for Eintracht, showing that he had quality, what he lacked was confidence, and the next day, he scored again, everything seemed to be in order. During the 6 months he was there, he was happy, he was scoring and enjoying himself. We all have the sparkle in our eyes and that cannot be hidden, the Serbian was lacking in confidence.

He had to return to Madrid for the season that ended a few months ago. With Ancelotti now in charge, it was thought that, if the problem was Zidane, at least now he would have a new opportunity to prove his worth. And he started well, he scored 1 goal at the beginning of the season, a winning goal, an important goal, but he began to fade over the months, and here the reason was none other than that Karim Benzema was about to fly. The Frenchman's prime was consumed to the point that everyone feels and perceives (including me) that he is the winner of the next Ballon d'Or.

Seeing that it was impossible to have minutes in the white house, he decided to put an end to that stage, the Italian Fiorentina entered into talks with the Serbian's team, and with Madrid something happened that generated little impact, but for me it should not go unnoticed. The total cost of Jovic's transfer was? 0 million euros. 0 euros. Nothing. As if he was a free agent.

Conclusiones finales y despedida - Final conclusions and farewell
Su paso por la casa blanca fue blanco... literalmente. No dejo huella en el club merengue. A pesar de tener fotos con la Champions, dentro de si, no se siente campeon de la misma. La confianza de Jovic se vio en extremo afectada por su etapa en la casa blanca.

Ahora, llego a Florencia, y en su debut en Serie A, anoto un gol para la victoria de su equipo. El delantero tiene calidad, tiene gol, tiene todo lo necesario para brillar esta temporada. Lo trajeron como pilar ofensivo post marcha de su compatriota Vlahovic. Veremos como le va, pero el comienzo es esperanzador.

Y tu, ¿cual crees que fue el motivo del porque no brillo en Madrid el serbio?, ¿estara a tiempo de salvar su carrera? Esta ultima pregunta la respondo yo, y es que si, por los motivos que mencione mas arriba y aparte la edad. Luka apenas tiene 24 años. Y a juzgar por su apariencia en Italia, se le ve pleno fisicamente y centrado en brillar.

Llegando asi al final de este post en la comunidad de Full Deportes, ¡Gracias por acompañar y nos seguiremos leyendo!

His time in the White House was white... literally. He left no mark on the merengue club. Despite having photos with the Champions League, inside himself, he does not feel champion of it. Jovic's confidence was extremely affected by his time in the white house.

Now, he arrived in Florence, and in his debut in Serie A, he scored a goal for his team's victory. The striker has quality, he has a goal, he has everything he needs to shine this season. He was brought in as an offensive pillar after the departure of his compatriot Vlahovic. We'll see how he does, but the start is encouraging.

And you, what do you think was the reason why the Serbian did not shine in Madrid, will he be in time to save his career? I will answer this last question, and it is yes, for the reasons I mentioned above and also because of his age. Luka is only 24 years old. And judging by his appearance in Italy, he looks physically full and focused on shining.

So coming to the end of this post in the Full Deportes community, thanks for joining us and we'll keep reading!
