Since April, Jović had already shown interest in the sky-blue club thanks to the constant messages from the sports director.
'They sent him videos of what Cruz Azul was like,' Santiago mentioned about the follow-up.
Giménez explained that the Serbian began to approach during training to learn more about the club.
'He asked me… and I told him it's a wonderful club, that he would enjoy it a lot,' he added.
Finally, he highlighted the attacker's qualities: 'You throw him a ball and he holds it for you.'
Although he acknowledged that there is a good forward line, he considered that 'with Luka's addition… there will be internal competition that will make everyone grow.'
