Fergie fight Real for
Jovetic
ALEX FERGUSON is facing a battle with Real Madrid for Partizan
Belgrade wonderkid Stevan Jovetic. SunSport revealed first that the
Manchester United boss has offered £7million for Montenegro hitman
Jovetic, 17. Fergie tried to clinch a deal with Partizan straight
away to avoid competition from Spanish giants Real.
Montenegro FA president Dejan Savicevic said: I am not surprised
by the interest of Manchester United. Stevan could play in any of
the biggest clubs in Europe. And I think United would get him on
the cheap even for a £7million.
Jovetic, who made his full senior debut for Montenegro in a
friendly against Hungary, has banged 18 goals in 54 games for
Partizan. Now Ferguson must wait till the end of the season as
Ajax, AZ Alkmaar, Heerenven and Sampdoria are also in the
frame.
Partizan director Gordan Petric said: We must decide the pros and
cons of selling Jovetic. We will decide that at the end of the
season. A lot of clubs are interested in him.
