Juventus reportedly identify Real Madrid forward Luka Jovic as a possible replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who will join Manchester United this summer.

Juventus have reportedly added Real Madrid striker Luka Jovic to their list of possible replacements for Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo will rejoin Manchester United this summer after making it clear to Juventus that he wanted to leave the club before Tuesday's transfer deadline.

The decision has left the Old Lady searching for a replacement in the closing stages of the window, and AS reports that Jovic is one of the names on their list of targets.

Jovic is deemed surplus to requirements at the Bernabeu, having scored just two goals in 34 appearances for Madrid since his £62m move in 2019.

The Serbia international spent last season on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt, where he scored four times in 18 outings.

Jovic is keen to fight for his place at Real Madrid and has featured in both of their La Liga outings so far this season, but manager Carlo Ancelotti is open to offers for him as Los Blancos look to free up room for Kylian Mbappe.

Juventus are also understood to be interested in Jovic's Real Madrid teammate Eden Hazard, who is one of a number of players the Spanish giants are willing to sell.
