Mascarell tells Real Madrid: Jovic like Suarez - but with more quality

Schalke midfielder Omar Mascarell has no doubts about the quality of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Luka Jovic.

Mascarell played with Jovic two seasons ago at Eintracht before leaving for S04 and is aware of the interest of Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The former Real midfielder told AS: "Yes, I was with him for a season. He was not the nine starter but you could see the qualities he had, every time he had minutes he did very well, scored goals ... It was seen that he was a great player in the area.

"I would say that Luis Suárez is his way of playing, but with a lot more quality.

"If he manages to be mentally and physically well, he has the quality. After Eintracht, in Madrid with players around of higher quality he will score more goals."
