AC Milan 'trying to sign Luka Jovic on loan from Real Madrid'

AC Milan have reportedly made Real Madrid flop Luka Jovic one of their priority targets for the winter transfer window.

The 22-year-old has scored just twice in 32 appearances since joining Madrid from Eintracht Frankfurt for a fee of €60m (£52.4m) in June 2019.

Jovic has started three times in all competitions this season and has been tipped to depart the Bernabeu next year.

According to TodoFichajes, Milan are interested in snapping up the Serbia international in January.

The Serie A pacesetters are said to be in the market for a back-up to Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who has already had a couple of spells on the sidelines this season.

However, the same report indicates that Milan do not have the funds to purchase Jovic outright and are instead hoping to take him on a short-term loan.
