Football News: Fiorentina Looking To Replace the Disappointing Jovic
Jovic’s spectacular debut against Cremonese gave Italy good feelings about the striker. But all the good feelings soon faded away with his goals in just the next 5 matches.
Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Italiano has told that the player needs some time to recover his match fitness which may help him to rediscover his form.
The manager has given the player enough game time, and the Serbian has played a total of 558 minutes in his eight appearances.
But his performance is miserable in finishing and in the game involvement. The player himself tried to justify his lack of form by saying: “It will take me time to find my form; I haven’t played in a long time.”
Jovic is asking for patience, but the Viola club is desperately looking for a good striker after selling Vlahovic to Juventus this January. Neither Piatek nor Cabral has put the performance or the numbers in front of the goal to please the club and the fans.
The compatriot of Vlahovic has arrived in Italy on a free transfer from Real Madrid this summer on the condition that half of the player’s rights will be kept by Madrid.
Fiorentina has not reached Vincenzo Italiano’s ambition, and their strikers, Jovic and Cabral have just scored one under each name. In the last game against Verona, Jovic has not played a single minute in their 2-0 victory. The Serbian even missed a penalty against Juventus, which ended up in a 1-1 draw.
Accordance to Olocip data, Jovic is the worst player on the pitch for his club. He has wasted most of and best chances for the Viola club. As a striker, he has a miserable negative value of -1.17 in total shots.
The January signing Cabral’s data is also miserable, as it is at a value of -0.5.
According to Corriere Fiorentino, the club is observing the market. They may get active in the January window.
