Real Madrid's Close In On Luka Jovic As Third 2019/20 Signing

Real Madrid's Close In On Luka Jovic As Third 2019/20 Signing

Luka Jovic to join Real Madrid?

With Real Madrid being linked with the likes of Eden Hazard and Kylian Mbappe, the Spanish giants are now reportedly close to wrapping up a deal for their next signing.

Click through the mini-gallery above to see Real's first two signings ahead of the 2019/20 campaign.

While recent reports suggested that Hazard's transfer is close to completion, it has also been claimed that the move will only be announced after the UEFA Europa League final on 29 May.

In the meantime, Los Blancos will reportedly complete the signing of in-form striker Luka Jovic from Eintracht Frankfurt.

The 21-year-old, who has scored 27 goals in 47 appearances across all competitions this season, will join the Spanish giants after the 2018/19 Bundesliga and LaLiga campaigns finish this weekend, according to AS.

Real have earmarked the striker as a competitor and long-term successor for Karim Benzema, and are prepared to pay €60 million (R958 million) for the Serbian.

The two clubs are believed to have a good working relationship, with the likes of Jesus Vallejo (loan), Omar Mascarell and Lucas Torro all joining Frankfurt from Real recently.

The Bundesliga side would make a lofty profit on the player, whom they have already agreed to sign permanently at the end of the campaign after activating a €7 million (R112 million) purchase option that was part of their two-year loan agreement with Benfica.
