PIC: Stevan Jovetic gets bribed with free meal to refrain from scoring against Liverpool

Good effort from this waiter

We don’t think this bribe is the best business in the world.

A Liverpool fan treated Manchester City forward Stevan Jovetic to a free meal in an attempt to convince the Montenegrin to refrain from scoring against his team.

The former Fiorentina striker posted this picture to his Instagram account showing that a waiter didn’t charge him when he dined out at London restaurant Jaks at the weekend with the caveat that the 25-year-old avoids scoring against Brendan Rodgers’ side.

Jovetic had a rare good game when he scored twice as City saw off Liverpool 3-1 in August so we kind of understand the sense of concern from the waiter but a free meal for a man who will likely be sat on the bench the next time the sides meet? Bad bribe buddy!

If Sergio Aguero ever visits Jaks then we worry that the waiter will give the Argentine the keys to his house and car.
