Blow to Man United, Arsenal as Zidane Rules Out Target’s Departure

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has maintained that Serbian striker Luka Jovic still has a future at the club as reports continue to link him with a move away from the Spanish capital.

The forward has struggled since his big-money move in the summer from Eintracht Frankfurt and has scored just one goal in 13 appearances for the club.

The player has been linked with Arsenal and Manchester United with the English clubs reportedly keen on having him on a loan deal in January.

Zidane, however, believes the attacker’s future lies in Madrid and has backed him to improve.
