Luka Jovic touches down in Florence ahead of Fiorentina medical

Real Madrid outcast Luka Jovic was all smiles as he landed in Florence ahead of his medical with Fiorentina on Friday afternoon.

The Serbia international is set to complete a free transfer to the Italian side this summer after struggling for form with the LaLiga giants.

Jovic signed for Real Madrid three years ago in a £62million move from Eintracht Frankfurt but failed to make his mark - scoring just three goals in 51 appearances.

Fiorentina took to their official Twitter page to share a photo of Jovic touching down at the Italian airport on Friday afternoon.

Fans were also seen celebrating and cheering as the 24-year-old arrived at the club to undergo his medical.

The supporters were dressed in Fiorentina shirts and seen waving flags as they gave their potential new signing a heroes welcome.

Fiorentina have agreed to sign Jovic on a permanent deal after Real Madrid made the decision to cut their losses with the 24-year-old.

The two clubs discussed a potential loan deal for Jovic but Real were eager to move on from Jovic and subsequently negotiated a 50 per cent sell-on clause instead.

Jovic is expected to sign a two-year-deal with the club, keeping him there until at least June 2024.

However, his contract with the Serie A side will have the option to extend by two additional years.
