Real Madrid striker Luka Jovic is at the center of a controversy in Serbia. Returning home, he failed to abide by the confinement rules established in Serbia and celebrated his partner’s birthday outside. While local authorities responded vigorously, promising harsh penalties up to prison, the player hastened to apologize on Instagram. Through two stories, the Real Madrid striker, tried to justify his behavior. “Considering that the situation in the world and in our country is very difficult, for a long time now, I must express myself and send encouragement to everyone”, said Jovic first, before continuing.
” I must first say that I am sincerely sorry to be in the center of attention these days, and I regret that people are constantly writing about me and not about the main protagonists in the fight against this crisis, who are the doctors and everyone who works in the health sector. In Madrid, my Covid-19 test was negative. This is why I decided to go to Serbia, to help and support our people, as well as to be close to my family, with the authorization of my club, “ said the Serb. Before explaining that I was surprised by the difference in treatment of the epidemic by Spain and Serbia. “When I arrived in Serbia, I was tested and the result came back negative. I’m really sorry that some people didn’t do their job professionally and didn’t give me any concrete instructions on how to behave during my isolation. In Spain, you are allowed to shop or buy products in pharmacies, which is not the case here. I apologize to everyone if I have in any way injured or endangered anyone. I hope together we can overcome it all. All my support, Serbia, we will all go together ”.
