Luka Jovic is looking for a team that will allow him to get some minutes and experience ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. He knows that at Real Madrid it is complicated, so he does not rule out an exit. The last team to ask for him, Besiktas.

Real Madrid have not yet started the exit operation, apart from the three players they have let go at the end of their contracts. As far as sales or loans are concerned, there is still no news.

One of those who could leave the Santiago Bernabeu is Luka Jovic. There is little left of the striker who was a key player for Eintracht and who, in fact, has been one of the most expensive strikers in the history of Real Madrid.

Faced with a lack of opportunities, and in such an atypical season with the World Cup in November, Jovic is looking for a team where he can get minutes and regularity in order to arrive in full physical condition.

Fiorentina were the first team to knock on the door of both the club and the Serbian. Now, it is Besiktas who are interested in the striker.

'AS' reported that the Ottoman side are willing to pay 1.5 million euros for the player, but Fiorentina remain favourites to sign Jovic.

However, the Serbian is not the only striker of interest to Besiktas, who have also Alexander Sorloth and Wout Werghoston their agenda.
