Despite having high hopes for Luka Jovic since his big-money move to Bernabeu, only two goals and one assist from 15 outings for Real Madrid in La Liga have been contributed by Jovic.
This led to speculation as to the exit of the 22-year-old, most likely on the loan due to the financial consequences of the coronavirus pandemic.
