TOM COLLOMOSSE: Luka Jovic heads to Prague with a point to prove against West Ham after a frustrating loan blighted by attitude problems and clashes with Fiorentina's fans... he looks a shadow of the star Real Madrid thought they were getting in 2019

When he was a top young forward with the world at his feet, Luka Jovic would have imagined himself on far greater stages than the Europa Conference League Final.

Yet Real Madrid's forgotten man has the chance to end West Ham's hopes of European glory and set his career back on track once and for all.

Jovic is approaching the end of a season-long loan at Fiorentina from Madrid - on the face of it a huge coup for the Serie A club, who have struggled to challenge for the top four in the league of the table since last qualifying for the Champions League in 2009.
