Zinedine Zidane has no doubt that Luka Jovic will show his potential in the Real Madrid team. Last summer, the 22-year-old striker arrived in the Spanish capital for 60 million euros and so far this season he is forced to settle for a substitute role. The Serb has played a total of 15 matches, but in most of them he only appeared as a substitute and played less than 20 minutes until the end of the match.
However, L. Jovic has a chance to shine in the Spanish Supercup. Today, Real will fight against Valencia for a place in the final, with Karim Benzema not even traveling to the tournament due to injury.
"We feel confident, although we have some problems in the squad," Z. Zidane said at a press conference. "We have a long bench, so other players will get their chance."
"Jovic is undoubtedly one of the possible options. He is still in the learning process, but he is a young player who wants to improve and integrate into the team as quickly as possible. He is the future of this club. I am satisfied with his performance and I have no doubt that he will start scoring many goals. We need to be patient, he knows that we support him," the coach added.
The Valencia vs Real match will start at 21:00.
