Serbia’s highly-rated striker Luka Jovic will spend the remainder of the season in the Bundesliga.
The 23-year-old Jovic, signed from the same Frankfurt after 17 goals and six assists in the German league, is going back to the club for game-time after struggling to break into Zinedine Zidane’s side in LaLiga.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the player and the two clubs have completed all formalities ahead of announcements.
Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt have completed and signed the paperworks. Luka Jovic is back on loan to Eintracht until the end of the season.
