Fiorentina & Montenegro striker Stevan Jovetic keen on Arsenal switch
Montenegro striker Stevan Jovetic would love the opportunity to join Arsenal and wants to prove himself by scoring against England in Tuesday’s World Cup qualifier.
Jovetic has been in impressive form for Fiorentina and has been mooted as a potential replacement for Robin Van Persie at the Emirates.
While he is reluctant to compare himself to Van Perise, Jovetic would love the chance to prove himself in the Premier League.
“I’ve heard about Arsenal’s interest. It’s a big pleasure for me to be on the radar of such a big club. I am happy about that,” Jovetic is quoted as saying in the Sun.
“I’ve always had an affinity with Arsenal. It’s a major club with a big tradition, one of the biggest in Europe.
“It’s not easy to replace Van Persie, who scored a lot of goals.
“Arsenal have plenty of players who don’t score like Van Persie, but are also very good. They are still very strong. I often watch Premier League games on TV. It’s one of the best leagues in the world and looks tempting for me.”
While he has been linked with a move away from Fiorentina, Jovetic insists he is happy with life in the Serie A.
“Maybe one day I will play there but I have a contract with Fiorentina and battling for a Champions League place in Serie A is the only thing I’m thinking about now,” he added.
