The highly rated Montenegro international eventually rejected the chance to play for los Blancos, and instead moved to Eastlands last July from Serie A side Fiorentina on a five-year contract in a deal worth £22m.
However, the 24-year-old has since found it desperately hard to settle into his new surroundings, while a series of niggling and untimely injuries have also restricted the number of appearances that the player has made for his new team.
“There was also Real Madrid, but I chose City,” said Jovetic.
“I decided to come here because this is a major project with many players. I should have come here the year before, but I had a nice season with (Vincenzo) Montella and Fiorentina.
“These four to five months at the beginning were difficult because I was not playing.
“I never doubted myself, even in the most difficult moments. I knew I could play in this team and now I have to prove it.”
