Luka Jovic

Spain's Real Madrid, the UEFA Champions League record holder for the most wins, failed to even reach the quarter-finals in 2019. It was a wake-up call for the coach, so he decided to update the squad. One of the most expensive pre-season transfers was Serbian footballer Luka Djokovic - Real Madrid paid for him for 60 million euros. Now Djokovic is among the most promising players.

Luka Djokovic was born on December 23, 1997, in the small village of Batar, near Theo of Bielin in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His parents Milan and Svetlana Djokovic are Serbian, so the young man has Serbian citizenship.

The Yugoslav wars of 1991-2001 significantly worsened the situation of the Ovich family. Svetlana was unemployed. The only source of income was Milan's performances for The Belgrade football club Partizan. The money was barely enough to pay for utilities and food, which is to say about elementary children's joys for Luke. The boy found entertainment in football: with his father they often played ball in the backyard.

In the early 2000s, Milana Djokovic began to let down health, and he focused on the sports education of his son. At his father's urging, 5-year-old Luca joined the youth team of FC Loznitsa.

In 2004, the boy was spotted and offered to play in the Mini Maxi tournament for children aged 4 to 12 in Belgrade. In the opening game, Luke scored 3 goals. Impressed by his talent, the managers offered Milan Djokovic 50 for each game with his son, as well as 2,000. dinar on the road from Batar to Belgrade and back.

One day on the mast of Tom Milicevic, the manager of FC Crvena Star, one of the top clubs in Serbia, drew attention to Luka. His game reminded Milicevic of the talent of Darko Panchev and Radamel Falcao. Later, after becoming a notable footballer, Luca was nicknamed Serbian Falcao. Tom invited the young man to try his hand at Crvena Star.

Crvena Star and Partizan are Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Serbian derby. Therefore, when the management of Partizan learned that Crvena Star wanted to buy Milan Jovic's son, it immediately set its price. "Black and White" offered for Luke 200 per month. Milan advised his son not to exchange for money, and to choose the club that was interested in his style of play.

Luka Jovic made his debut for Crvena Star in the match against Oivodina FC at the age of 16 years, 5 months and 5 days. It took him 2 minutes to score the first goal. During the next season, the young man justified his position on the field: in the first five games of the club he scored 3 goals. It is likely that Jovic's career in his native "Crvena Star" would have been successful, but in February 2016 the young scorer for 5 years acquired the Portuguese football club Benfica.

Luka sat on the bench for a year and a half, and in June 2017 Benfica loaned him to Eintracht Frankfurt, a club in Frankfurt, for two seasons. The young footballer made a significant contribution to winning the German Cup 2017-2018: in the semi-final, Djokovic scored the only goal against Schalke 04 and led the team to the final. However, the player did not participate in the decisive fight against Bayern Munich.

The 2018/2019 season began with another age record. Luka Djokovic became the youngest player to score 5 goals in a Bundesliga game. Djokovic played so well at Eintracht Frankfurt that in April 2019 the team's lawyers found a loophole in his contract with Benifika and took over the squad until June 2023.

The footballer could have further developed German football if the UEFA Champions League cup had not been won by Liverpool that season. The coach of Real Madrid, zinedine, took it as a personal insult and began to actively look for strong players, among whom Jovic was also.

Despite his young age, Luka Djokovic has already succeeded in his personal life: his common-law wife Angela Manitashevich gave birth to a son in February 2019. The footballer introduced the baby by posting a photo of him in a drooling "Crvena Star" on Instagram.

While Djokovic is studying at Real Madrid, she is raising her son and dreams of children. Angela shares her desires on social networks. The birth of a child did not spoil her beauty: in the photos the girl is always with a chic hairstyle and makeup.

The World Cup in Russia is an important event for Jovic, and he decided to remember it by stuffing a tattoo. His right breast now adorns the face of Jesus. This means that Luke professes Christianity.

He was given a total of €300 million to upgrade Real Madrid's squad ahead of the 2019/2020 season. Of this amount, $60 million was spent on Luka Djokovic. The deal almost fell through: after learning that Real Madrid is extremely interested in a young promising player, Eintracht Frankfurt raised the price to 100 million, but the management of the Spanish team was adamant.

The contract with Real Madrid runs until 2025. The salary is 13 million a year. Going to the Spanish club is the best event in the biography of Djokovic, because as a child he was his idol.

It is said that Djokovic was replaced by Karim Benzima. The Serbian footballer plays better "on the second floor" (his height is 182 cm, weighing 85 kg), does not have a working leg, that is, equally effective scores goals both on the right and left. And in general, he is younger and more upset than Benzima.
