Atletico Madrid and Juventus to battle for Jovetic

Atletico Madrid and Juventus have been linked with a cut-price move for out-of-favour Manchester City forward Stevan Jovetic, according to the Mirror.

Wilfried Bony’s arrival at the Etihad Stadium from Swansea City back in January saw the 25 year old former Partizan and Fiorentina man fall further out of favour, with both Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero also ahead of him in the pecking order in Manuel Pellegrini’s side.

Jovetic has made just sixteen appearances in all competitions so far this season, and started only nine games in the Premier League.

He hasn’t featured at all since the 1-1 draw with Hull City over a month ago, while he has scored just once since netting in the 3-2 win over Sunderland on New Year’s Day.

The Montenegro international moved to the Manchester club in the summer of 2013 for £22m, but a figure closer to £12m may be enough for potential suitors.
