Real Madrid have won the race to sign Eintracht Frankfurt striker Jovic, according to Spanish publication AS.
The Serbia international has enjoyed a superb season for the Bundesliga side, scoring 26 goals in 44 appearances to help Eintracht battle for a top-four finish and reach the Europa League semi-finals.
Jovic has been tracked by a host of European giants throughout the campaign, with Manchester United, Chelsea and Barcelona all linked with a move for the 21-year-old.
However, Madrid appear to be on the verge of completing a deal for one of the most in-demand attackers in Europe.
AS report that Jovic will move to the Santiago Bernabeu for £51m this summer, with the former Benfica man set to partner Karim Benzema in attack.
Madrid youth-teamer Pedro Riaz, 19, will move to Frankfurt as a makeweight in the deal.
