#9 Luka Jovic (Eintracht Frankfurt)

Luka Jovic

League - Germany's Bundesliga

Goals - 12 (24 points)

The 20-year-old Serbian international is currently on loan in the Bundesliga from Benfica, but he has taken to the Commerzbank Arena like a fish to water.

He had a fairly impressive debut campaign with Frankfurt, scoring eight league goals in 22 Bundesliga appearances, while also appearing five times in the triumphant DFB Pokal run in 2018 scoring the decisive goal in the semi-final win over Schalke. His performances saw him rewarded with a spot on the plane to the World Cup in Russia with Serbia.

Thus far this season, he has taken his goalscoring exploits a notch higher, and in October became the youngest ever player in Bundesliga history to score five goals in a single match when he did so in the 7-1 victory over Dusseldorf.

Jovic currently has 12 Bundesliga goals this term to help his club to sixth place on the standings, while he has also contributed five goals in as many matches in the Europa League to help his side qualify top of their group having impressively won all six of their group stage matches.

At this rate, it is hard to imagine Frankfurt not taking up their option of making his move permanent at the end of the season.
