Fiorentina youngster Stevan Jovetic has been awarded Footballer of the Year in his homeland Montenegro.

The 20-year-old has had a breakthrough season for the Viola after having some trouble settling in last year.

Jovetic’s most memorable performance was in the Champions League when the former Partizan player scored twice against European heavyweights Liverpool.

“This award has confirmed that I have had an excellent year,but I hope this is just the start and that next year I will give more on the field,” he told the Serbian media.

Jovetic has scored seven goals in 36 appearances for the Fiorentina first-team and six goals in 13 caps for Montenegro.
