Even though I think we're signing Llorente, I'm still dreaming about Jojo. Cavani is totally out of reach, I understand that, but I don't think Jovetic is. I think they're simply holding out for a fair market deal, frankly; I mean, look what the man did coming off major knee surgery at the age of 22. I'd have no problem seeing Beppe drop 30-35M on this guy. Or 25-27 and Qtube. He's one for the future, going to be a superstar.
People who get hysterical because they feel the club desperately needs to add a "true CF, 9", etc., well for me that is quickly overdone. What this club needs, above all, is a serious injection of quality for the attack - and Jovetic fits the bill. The team plays possession football, Conte can work with some very high quality hybrids up front; these guys can find the net. Also, losing Alex was a blow, but losing Marco isn't. The club would be adding the 8th and 9th top goal scorers to the second highest scoring offense in Serie A, meanwhile Milan loses Ibra, Napoli loses Lavezzi...
Jovetic can/has played at CF, Mirko can/has played at CF (paired with Jovetic no less), and Matri obviously knows the role. If we sub Quag out for another target option, then there's even more flexibility. Meanwhile, great competition and rotation at SS.
Would be a great move, I wish it was a priority - a move for now, and the future.

I couldn't agree more...
