Real Madrid offer Luka Jovic to Roma

Real Madrid have offered Luka Jovic to Roma.

Knowing Roma are in the process of selling centre-forward Edin Dzeko to Inter Milan, Real have made contact about taking Jovic as a replacement. Dzeko is in advanced talks to sign for Serie A champions Inter as they sell Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea this week.

La Repubblica via TMW reports Serbia international striker has been offered to Roma sporting director Tiago Pinto in a permanent deal.

The centre-forward is not in new Real coach Carlo Ancelotti's plans for the season, having spent part of last term on-loan with Eintracht Frankfurt.

Jovic has also been linked with a return to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Last season, Jovic spent the second-half of the campaign on-loan in Germany, where he played 18 games for Eintracht Frankfurt, scoring four goals and producing four assists. Before Christmas with Real Madrid, he made five appearances.

Jovic has a contract with Real Madrid to 2025.
