At a time when all eyes were on the marking name that Christian PulisikThe Rafael LeaoThe Santiago Gimenezand Joao FelixIt turns out that Milanos most productive forward –Per 90 minutes then played Zlatan Ibrahimovic– Has been someone no one talked about. A player who is overlooked, discarded and almost forgotten in the depth of the squad list has now appeared as the club’s Most effective target scores since Zlatan.
But who is he?
Its Jovic’s wound– The Serbian striker who arrived under the radar and stayed there for most of the season. Injuries, rotation and remaining from the Champions League squad painted a bleak picture for the 27-year-old. His departure looked inevitable in January, but no club came to call. Now, as fate would have it, Milan may have stumbled across their Most surprising asset.
According to CASEThe “With his goal against Fiorentina, Jovic has on average on average one goal was 131 minutes, even though his record did not look particularly appealing – 11 goals in 39 performances.” Only Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s interest rate is better, as he was on average a goal every 128 minutes during his twilight at the club.
In recent weeks Jovic has scored against Napoli and Fiorentinawhile Tammy Abraham– Another comeback story – net against Between And added another in the same Fiorentina collision. All Milan’s last four goals? It is done by this unlikely duo. The Fiorentina goal had extra significance for Jovic. When he was a player there he left the club on one for free and has been a fence over the treatment he received.
Says what others are not coming
Jovic has not shot away from expressing his frustration. After his goal against Napoli he told La Gazzetta Dello SportThe “I am happy to have exploited the opportunities that were given me, because this year I have not had many. I think I deserve more space in Milan as well. “
He doubled again after Fiorentina: “I try to do what I can in the minutes I get. I want to play my best in every game, do what I can. I hope the coach notices it.”
His contract expires at the end of the season, and Milan has the opportunity to extend it. Whether they will or not remain uncertain, but one thing is clear: Jovic is makes it very hard to ignore him.
Broken front line somewhere else
While Jovic and Abraham have revived Milan’s hope for a Coppa Italia -Push, others disappear forward. Lion am still speechless at San Siro in Serie A this season, and Gimen Haven’t got goals since 18 February. Injuries, compensation and inconsistency have defined the Mexican start. Joao FelixMeanwhile has not contributed a single goal or helped since he scored against Roma in Coppa Italia.
Everything paints a strange picture. The attacking talents Milan spent so much effort (and money) to acquire has faded, while two players that many are regarded as stopgaps have Wear the team.
