Real Madrid striker Luka Jovic is on the brink of returning to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Republika says Jovic will make the move to Eintracht on a six-month loan deal without an option to buy. The deal is practically done; it is just the fine details that are being ironed out.

As such, Mariano Diaz will be left to act as Karim Benzema's backup at Real Madrid.

This season, Jovic saw himself fall even further down Zinedine Zidane's pecking order.

In fact, in five appearances - totalling just 208 minutes - he failed to find the back of the net.
