Arsenal open to loan deal for Real Madrid forward Luka Jovic?

Arsenal are reportedly interested in securing the services of Real Madrid forward Luka Jovic on a season-long loan deal.

While the Gunners are well stocked for options in the final third, the possible exit of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has left Mikel Arteta needing to consider affordable alternatives.

Due to the financial implications of the coronavirus pandemic, a loan agreement for a high-profile replacement may suit the North London outfit.

According to Sport, that has led to Arsenal identifying Jovic as a possible addition during the next transfer window.

After only being provided with five starts in La Liga and the Champions League this season, the 22-year-old is expected to depart the Bernabeu on a temporary basis.

The report suggests that AC Milan are also contemplating whether to make an approach for the Serbia international.
