Report: Barcelona Luka Jovic Interest 'Dead' Due to Frankfurt's €60M Valuation

Barcelona's interest in Eintracht Frankfurt striker Luka Jovic is reportedly "dead," as the Bundesliga side are said to want €60 million (£51 million) before agreeing to a sale.

According to Lluis Miguelsanz of Sport, the number of teams interested in the Serbia international has prompted Frankfurt to raise their asking price ahead of a possible summer transfer.

"This is why Barca are yet to present an official offer for Jovic, despite reports saying otherwise. The Spanish club feel they are being used in order to drive up interest—and as such, the asking price—so Eintracht can bank the maximum possible for Jovic," Miguelsanz reported.
