Luka Jovic has admitted he is not himself after scoring just once since signing with Real Madrid.
“I’m not happy with the season I’m having, at least up to this point. Mainly because I can be much better. 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 paid €60M for you. I have fought until now without success. But hope the situation changes” he revealed.
Despite the tough luck and the difficult start to his Real Madrid career, Jovic is adamant that his talent will shine through. “In Serbia, I still feel that there is a lot of negativity when talking about my game at Real Madrid,” he said. ”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.”
Jovic has not completely let up on his Real future just yet. He believes in himself and has received the support of Galacticos boss, Zinedine Zidane himself. In a pre-match press conference during the Spanish Cup knockout phases in Saudi Arabia, Zidane told reporters, “He is the future. He has to be calm. He is learning and adapting. He will score a lot of goals for Real Madrid. We’ve backed him and you have to be calm with him.”
