Impact Jovic will miss at least a week while isolating, but he was unlikely to start ahead of a healthy Karim Benzema up front anyway.

Takes two shots in win Jovic took two shots (one on target) and created two chances in Tuesday's 2-0 Champions League victory against Inter.
Impact Jovic was solid in his first start of the season for Real Madrid on Tuesday, filling in for the injured Karim Benzema (hamstring). He will return to the bench once Benezema is fit, but Jovic has proved over the last two games that he could be a legitimate backup option for his side, arguably the first time he has shown life since transferring from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer of 2019.

Scores, assists in relief Jovic scored one goal on his only shot and provided one assist from three chances created during Saturday's 2-0 win over Real Sociedad.
Impact Jovic stepped up in a big way following Karim Benzema's early departure as he got involved in both goals. His score marked his first time finding the net this season and first time he's played more than 28 minutes in a single game, though circumstances played a big role in this due to Benzema's injury. Up next is a visit from Inter Milan in the UCL, and Jovic will hope to remain in the lineup based on his strong effort in Saturday's game.

Available as substitute Jovic (ankle) will be an option off the bench versus Osasuna on Wednesday.
Impact Jovic returns to the squad following a two-match absence due to his ankle issue. Considering the forward has yet to feature in the starting XI this year, fantasy players shouldn't be banking on him doing so any time soon. As such, he's unlikely to offer more than low-end fantasy value moving forward.

Returns to team training Jovic (ankle) did the entire training session with the team, according to Arancha Rodriguez.
Impact Jovic has made a full return to team training and could return to the pitch in the next week. The forward isn't a large part of the starting XI, but with Madrid dealing with a plethora of injuries he would provide a much-needed depth option off the bench. The earliest he could return is Wednesday, against Osasuna.

Impact Jovic suffered a heavy blow to his ankle during training and will be sidelined for Tuesday's clash. The forward hasn't been a main part of the starting XI, but this injury will limit Madrid's already injury-taxed depth. His next chance to play is Sunday, away to Barcelona.

Finally on score sheet Jovic provided one assist on one chance created during Sunday's 2-1 loss to Espanyol.
Impact Jovic finally got on the scoresheet in his fifth appearance as he continues to languish at the bottom of the depth chart. The forward shows no signs of breaking into the team and has next to no fantasy value.

Impact Jovic had missed the 5-2 win over Celta Vigo with gastroenteritis and has only played 10 minutes all season. As one of the distant backups to Karim Benzema, Jovic isn't likely to play much without good reason.
