Luka Jovic ‘has the potential’ to play for Barcelona, says Serbia coach

Serbia coach Mladen Krstajic says striker Luka Jovic definitely has the potential to play for Barcelona.

The Eintracht Frankfurt striker’s future has been the subject of much speculation recently, with Barcelona heavily with a move.

Jovic scored his first international goal against Germany on Wednesday, and Krstajic spoke about the youngster after the match.

“I’m not his agent so I don’t know about any interest from Barcelona, but he definitely has the potential to play for a club of that stature,” he said.

Jovic has bagged 15 goals in the Bundesliga this season and seven in the Europa League to attract interest from Europe’s top sides and is expected to cost around €60 million.
