However, it is Real Madrid which sealed a deal for Jovic who signed a five-year contract with Los Blancos as they look to rebuild their team under Zinedine Zidane.
Jovic became the second player to join the club since Zidane's return at the helm, with a $56 million move for Porto defender Eder Militao concluded in March.
Eintracht has made a massive profit on the 21-year-old as it only trigged a purchase option in his loan deal from Benfica for a reported €6m in April.
