Jovetic is expected to fill a void soon to be left by French striker Mbappe, who is on the verge of sealing a move to rivals PSG which is reported to be an initial one-year loan deal with a permanent deal in place for next summer thought to be worth €180 million (Dh795m).
Jovetic becomes the ninth signing of the summer for Monaco, who have also recruited the likes of midfielders Youri Tielemans and Soualiho Meite and defender Terence Kongolo.
