​Father claims Jovic to reject Barcelona, Man City for Frankfurt

Luka Jovic could be set to stay at Eintracht Frankfurt for at least another season.

The 21-year-old Serbian striker is wanted by the likes of Barcelona and Manchester City.

With 23 goals to his name this season, he is in the best form of his career. But his father feels that a move to a big club may reduce his playing time.

His father Milan Jovic told Bild: "Luka has had many offers, one of them was Barca, but he's not interested now.

"He's not sure he would get any minutes at Barca.

"The truth is that Luka wants to stay in the Bundesliga and qualify with Eintracht for the Champions League."
